basic lighting question Created 19 years ago2005-12-09 09:05:21 UTC by Mr Milkman

ok, so im a newbie, but a basic question about lighting values, i know the end value controls the brightness, 255 255 255 1000, so if i set it to 1000, is that brighter or darker?? because I couldnt notice too much difference.. though there was some, but it wasnt considerable... so i wasnt sure if i imagined it or not... haha... its not a leak or anything, coz there is still heaps of darkness in my rooms... thanks!

1000 is brighter. It doesn't change the distance the light is casted much, though. That's what the linear value is for. Check the source of dm_lockdown (provided with the SDK) to see how they did their lighting. Helps a lot.

cool thanks guy, I will check it out

this should make it easier.
