make sure you're using the model

p7_fxanim_zm_factory_robot_head_smod

and make sure that the kvp "siege_anim" says

p7_fxanim_zm_factory_robot_head_sanim

So i can't have a lamp hanging from the ceiling with its light swinging around a bit? Or can i?

Maybe with having multiple ones and hide, show, hide show, hide, show,... But i tried that with something else to make it look like it's spinning around, but it'll basically flash.

I think you can but it's a little complicated and you need to know a little about scripting (i never tried this so dont shoot me). Basically you hang your lamp (dyn_model) on a rope (entity browser) and then add a "playfxontag" to the model in a script. Make sure that its a light fx

Hmm... I'll try it once i finished this area i'm working on :)

PS. Do you know if there's a file somewhere with all the functions you can use in a script so you can see how you have to script something??
I'm trying to trigger an explosion FX with PLAYFX, 1.5 seconds after a trigger_use, but i haven't been able to make it work yet.
