B2: Game Lighting

posted on August 1st, 2004, 1:29 pm

i like how you can place the lighting into the game and change the colour ect, how ever i'm not sure if this is a bug or not but if you place light behind a planet the front of it lights up now i'm no expert in space but i'm sure theres no big mirror reflecting the light on to one sides pof the planets?!

if you place a light source in the editor you just set the vector of the incomming light, it's no real point-light-source otherwise you wood need tons of lights to light up a level

is there anyway of getting the lights to come from a certain side of the map?

perhaps, if could adjust the range of the light...

what so that if you have a small star in space it only lights up a few planets and a red giant lights up the whole map?

to a tiny spec of light(a star)
or any thing in between
