 Adding a lighting effect

Step 1.Open WL_ACT1.C and search for "light". Now you should find:

{SPR_STAT_14}, // Ceiling light
Change that to:
{SPR_STAT_14, bo_light}, // Ceiling light

Save and compile.Now open WL_DEF.H and search for "bo_". Now you should find at the bottom:

bo_spear
Change that to:

bo_light
Again, save and compile. 
Step 2: Open WL_AGENT.C and do a search for bo_gibs. You should find:

case bo_gibs:
if (gamestate.health >10)
return;

SD_PlaySound (SLURPIESND);
HealSelf (1);
break;

Now, copy the entire case and paste it right below the break; of the bo_gibs case, like this:

case bo_gibs:
if (gamestate.health >10)
return;

SD_PlaySound (SLURPIESND);
HealSelf (1);
break;
case bo_gibs:
if (gamestate.health >10)
return;

SD_PlaySound (SLURPIESND);
HealSelf (1);
break;
Now, change the last bo_gibs case to the following:

case bo_light:
StartBonusFlash ();

Your code'll now look like this:

case bo_gibs:
if (gamestate.health >10)
return;

SD_PlaySound (SLURPIESND);
HealSelf (1);
break;

case bo_light:
StartBonusFlash ();

That's it! Compile it all and link it up. You're all set with your lighting effect!
