Matinee Lighting Animation

HakiMaterial

Hi, my fellow PCer's. I've been doing some trial and error to figure this out but failed to find an answer to this lighting problem in matinee. I'm trying to get this result:

So what happened was every time I bake my lighting and when I play the animation in matinee or in game, it always asks to rebuild lighting. Is there another approach to this method that I can achieve without the lighting problem? I would love to get this affect to work in my scene renders.

Make sure "cast static shadows" is turned off in the light properties

Thanks for the suggestion. It helped with the light build error not popping up but without that checked it won't cast any lights onto the landscape mesh that I have.I'm trying to create firefly green lights in matinee.

try using a "point light moveable" or a "point light toggleable" -- they are dynamic lights and should do the trick.

Yep Moveable did the job with or without the static shadow checked works. It's weird how Toggleable doesn't work the same way but on top of this thank you, r4ptur3!
