Lightning guide? - gruzz - 09-05-2013

So i've been busy for some hours now for the first part of my CS, but i have gotten stuck on some places. I have placed pillars on some places in some rooms, and on them, there is a lightning..

I want the shadow from the pillar to show on the oppisit side of the lightning..

I'm almost surten i did read some brilliant guide about ligning and shadows on this forum, but i can't find the thread (it may not even exist? Tongue )

Thanks.

There's only one way to cast a shadow, so I guess this is the one we're going to pick.

Spotlights
Create a spotlight.
Make sure that "Cast Shadows" is checked. Otherwise it would not cast shadows.
Now you can play with it as much as you like with flickering, size, FOV, color etc. until you're pleased
