Splotchy lighting issues

rFranks

Hey there,

for some reason I cannot get rid of these splotchy circles that the spotlight is creating (ie when I turn the spotlight off they disappear)..

here it is in a Preview Build with Light Map Resolution at 1024 and it's one mesh...

a High Build...

and Light Map Resolution at 2048...

Here's the uv's I have for it...

and the lightmass settings...

and the spotlight settings...

and then trying some stupidly high settings...

but it's not fixing anything.

Am I missing anything? Thanks in advance.

Do you have a lightmass importance volume placed around the room?

rFranks

Yeah I do but  in the end it looks like my spotlight was actually inside the light 3d model.

so moving it forward fixed everything

problem is it makes the volumetric light not look right

maybe that's just what I have to live with then, unless other people have had to solve something similar?

Did you make sure the actual light model does not cast a shadow? There should be a check box.
