Changing the glow modifier via LSL?

I can't seem to find any information on how I'd go about changing the glow modifiers via LSL. It looks fantastic but I'd like to have them visible during times specified by myself.

If you're just looking for the command to change the point light parameters it's llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_POINT_LIGHT, integer boolean, vector color, float intensity, float radius, float falloff ]);

I wrote up a feature suggestion last night, please vote for it.

I just assumed there would be a constant there, so I tried PRIM_GLOW in the editor, didn't turn blue.. then I hit the wiki, nothing there either. My guess is the constant is already there, they just need to set it as a constant

PRIM_GLOW is now listed as part of the llSetPrimitiveParams function on the official LSL wiki, but it doesn't work yet inworld

Just use 25 instead of PRIM_GLOW. The viewer change is only so it knows how to translate "PRIM_GLOW" into the number 25..

Yeah, I've used 25, which allows compilation etc, but a script error occurs every time you use it at the moment

ditto

IIRC, the Lindens said they will soon release a viewer update to enable PRIM_GLOW. Maybe it will wind up in a RC release.

Using an RC now. I thought it required a server upgrade personally

It is in the latest server release, and was meant to be in RC1 according to earlier blog entries (don’t feel like searching the blog for references so you will have to accept my word). I guess the priorities slipped. But it should be in the next production release.

Looks great there. Still no script joy.

The editor still chokes on PRIM_GLOW, but using 25 allows it to actually run in script!

This world is about to be drowned in blinking neon. A small amount ought to be
pretty, too.

So.. is "PRIM_GLOW" on or off by default on a fullbright face?

I know that the 1.18 series of viewers, when you enabled "RenderGlow", ANYTHING that was fullbright was also glowing like a house on fire.

Do I need to go through and "de-glow" all my full-bright vendors?

No, RenderGlow is different. Fullbright objects do not have any glow attached to them. If they did then loads of objects all over SL would now be broken

Your lucky number is 25, wich is not yet the constant PRIM_GLOW for llSetPrimitiveParams, followed by a float.
It works on all havok4 regions since RC3 client, that is, for some weeks by now.

Indeed it does. Now all regions are Havok4 I've tried it and it works perfectly. I have a torch that I click to turn on and off. When it's off it now no longer glows (I scripted that in a while back but it's been chucking up script errors until now). PRIM_GLOW still doesn't seem accepted though, 25 is however

Maybe my Brain is sleepy or maybe I am just being dumb. What the heck is this 25 you all talk about. I looked back in the older post. I still have no idea what you are all talking about.

Basically, when you use certain parameters in LSL functions, they are simply names for a constant figure which LSL translates. PRIM_GLOW is, in this case, 25, so since scripts will generate an error when you try to save them because PRIM_GLOW is as yet unrecognised, you can use the constants figure instead. This doesn't generate an error if it's unknown until you try to use the script, at which point a script error pops up.

Have a look here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlSetPrimitiveParams

You can see there is a value associated with the various parameters.

http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/PRIM_GLOW

There you can see that PRIM_GLOW = 25, so while PRIM_GLOW will not compile, you can put a 25 in its place and it will compile OK

llSetPrimitiveParams([25, ALL_SIDES, 1.0]);

Ok I feel silly now. so 25 is the actual name of the parameter in the llSetPrimitiveParams command in LSL. I see where you had to write it out for me. I would have a hard time finding words to make it more simple too.

Thanks for your time.
