Sorry, but this is done with a program called Gmax / 3ds Max / the BAT.

Basically, it's the modelling programs through which the Simcity models are created.

Unfortunately, due to the way buildings are rendered (they are rendered into images, then put on a simple box), you are unable to edit their lights sequence.

There are a few light props for the BAT, but it can't in any way replace the "nitemaps" that appear on buildings.

Sorry, but I sincerely wish you good luck.

    Alright! I applaud your incentive to learn BATing, especially with nitemaps!

    A good starting place is with Part One in the Omnibus,

    and Part Five is where the author gets into nitemaps.

    I tell you, it's not easy to BAT, but it can sure be rewarding.
