I was playing around with the first level from the Sci-Fi set.
I took this screenshot of the enemy as the way the level lighted her.
My video card is a 6800GT with 256Megabytes of Ram. I do not believe it is a problem with the video card as I can play Doom3/HalfLife2 which uses full shaders.
Take a look and tell me what you think the problem is.

I think this is due to the number of lights used with shaders. Lee does want to improve this but had no time for V1. It's something we will address. He needs some more light sources in the scene to take advantage of shaders.

I wish my sci-fi segments looked all nice like that >_>

V1 seems to have a ton of problems, inconsistencies, and ways to light a scene that seem like it was only done because it was easier then making the lights work correctly.. The Sci-fi stuff doesn’t seem to play very well with lights, or in my case, not very well with anything.

What seemed to help someone else with sci-fi stuff, or how light was acting on some of the stuff, he edited the textures on the model to solve some of the anomalies.
