    Hi.

    I saw on the back of Earl and Suchey's marines that they had little reflectors on their helmets. They emitted no lights, but were not affected by darkness, either.

    I need something like this for a helicopter. Does anyone know if this is possible?

    EDIT: This is the effect I'm looking for. Not the lights by the gate, but the radiance from the roofs of the towers. [link]

    That was the answer! Thanks a lot, man!

    For all those who want to know:
    1. Select the faces you want to light up.
    2. Press Shift+E, or go to Points > Properties...
    3. Mark of the 'Shining' option under the 'Lighting' section and press 'Apply' and then 'OK'.

    ...and you're done.

    Thanks again, Wheres My Rabit.
