Hi guys, i know that i can show up 9 dynamic light per level with new graphic cards (i own a gtx 770) but every time i can't have more than 2 or 3 (depend on how many light are near) cause i get this weird effect:

As you can see by editor, i've placed 3 dynamic light (only these 3 in the level) but when i enter in game i can show up only 2 by my player camera...



if i move a bit right or a bit left i can render the left or the right but not all 3 at the same times.. why???

The segment_spec_norm shaders in nomad mod only support 2 dynamic lights.
This means that only 2 dynamic lights can be seen at once on segments using that shader.
If something compiles on the first try. Something is terribly wrong.

Yeah, I corrected the method that the shaders used. Mine can render 4 dynamic lights + 1 loving light and a muzzleflash. Mine also have proper specular and normal mapping with every light.
The stock shaders use a single instance CalcLighting to try and render all of the lights at once, the proper way is to use multiple instances of CalcLighting rendering a single light each.

Yeah the doors are a bit weird because I need 2 sets of textures for the static frame and the dynamic door. I might fix them soon.

@ uzi idiot So your saying we can have up to 4 dynamic lights that will light up at once with your shaders ?
I need to play more with these.
My games never have bugs. They just develop random features..
Lots and lots of random features...

I've fixed the doors.
Now I'm just updating the shaders to allow the user to control the strength of the lightmap reflections.

I'm pretty sure it's not anything special. The only important thing is lightmaptexsize=1024
