Would it be possible to use a light effect to illuminate an area around the player when he shhots a gun. Any suggestions ?

You could use a hardware light with a sprite for the gun flash. Depends on how the surrounding scenary is done. If it's lightmapped, hardware light might not look very good...

Particle Candy could work...

Get a list of all triangles that can be affected and project the light blob onto the triangles that are close enough. Easier said than done, I know.
