Also, some effects are one time (they'll play for one duration then stop), so if the one you are using is like that you can get around it by placing it on a tomb lot and having it switch triggered by something your sim does (like walk near it).

Oh my goodness, the time factor never even came to my mind. So that's why it doesn't show up in EIG. That is so good to know.
These lights are out in the desert and not in a lot, so the tomb thing wouldn't work but hopefully this particular effect is continuous. Oh, and I wasn't aware of the save and reload thing. Thank you so much for your help. I feel much more sure with my world now.
