I am (relatively) new on the forum, and I have a problem.

I am making a game using lots of dynamic lights, but for some reason they don't render until I get really close. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Try updating your version of FPSC.

Also, check dynamic lights are enabled inside your setup.ini file inside your FPSC root directory. Dynamic shadows should be set to 1.

You may also be using too many dynamic lights - in stock FPSC the limit is 8.

Ok. I'll try reducing the # of lights.

Unless you were using a mod, the stock limit for rendering dynamic lights is 8 (unless that has changed in an update).
