to add that kind of stuff you need to do it threw Level edit. Make a presset for them and place them

I think it sucks to give emitters good positions in LE.
What I do is place boxes in renx in the positions were you want the emitters. When you have to right positions export it as HIERACHEL MODEL. Best is to export this as a different w3d then the terrain.

Then in LE after you added this w3d to your map click the 'instances tab' in the right menu.
Double click terrain then select all the meshes for the boxes you placed.

Then click 'Object' in the upper menu and select 'Replace selection'

Then select an emitter from the presets Thumbs Up

its easier to place them in le. If you do it in renx just export a separate .w3d with just the emitters and add as a temp tile preset.

The thing that I don't like about placing emitters is that you can't see the emission from every angle. One second you can see it clearly, but then you move the camera slightly to get a better view and the emission disappears.. like a Vis error... just without the Vis..
