[LVL ED] How to make good pointlights ?

[Adny]

A dark pointlight (0,0,0,0) is pretty much useless. I have no clue why they're spammed throughout FG's prison levels. You can however, "diffuse" light intensity/color to make it look much more realistic and natural.

For example:

You have a hole in a ceiling. For simplicity's sake, lets assume its creating a yellowish/brownish light. You can have one pointlight directly under the light source. Because of its location, it will have the highest intensity and color definition. It could be colored to a light brown (0.5,0.4,0.3,0).

But, it looks strange having just that one light then darkness all around it. You can add additional point lights around the edge, with a darker brown color (0.3, 0.2, 0.1, 0). Finally, you can add one last color of point light (again around the edge), an even darker brown (0.2, 0.1, 0, 0).

Try something like that. Idk.
