Ruecian Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I'm working on a large room with four shadow casting lights that haven't had any issues. the problem is I had some non shadow casting omnidirectional lights that used to work fine, but after I added 4 more small ones they began to randomly flicker on and off as I move the camera. I've tried getting rid of the four new lights but this did not fix the issue, I had also added some glass jars made into statics, so I tried removing those and I still have issues. All my lights are brand new IDs based off vanilla lights. These lights do not have flicker or pulse effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkPrince Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 This issue might be caused by the "vicinity" of too many lights. Have you tried by improving the distance between lights and (if you must) enlarge by size (yes, with the S button) the lights that used to work?

Though I can't figure out why it still happens when i get rid of the new lights that caused the flickering. I think you're definitely on the right track, I'll play around with it and see what I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the help, I think I just didn't notice the issue before because I had about 4 large lights covering an area so if one flickered out I didn't notice, but with the 4 new lights all four would go out.

TheDarkPrince Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Just keep 3 lights re-sized and in the right positions (angles are the best) so you will have a nice lighting effect and it won't cause any flickr! Thank you for watching my topic if you already did, if not, thank you if you will :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
