UE4 Spotlight not contributing to bounced lighting
polycounter lvl 6
Hi guys
I am having trouble lighting a scene in the same style as the tutorial below. After some advice from a colleague I have tried creating a bounced light method with spotlights as instructed in the link below.

I am finding that when I build my lighting only the directional light in my scene is able to contribute to overall bounced lighting and any changes I make to the additional spotlights makes no effect. Do you know why this might be? I am using Unreal 4.11.2 with the directional light connected to sky sphere. The bounced cards are set to not cast shadows and the spotlights are set to a value of 1200 and are static

I ran into this problem when trying to create bounce cards that didn't cast shadows, and didn't ever solve it.
