I dont get the ability to shadow at all, i edit the color of lights to dark/black 000000 or whatever it is, but when i test the game there as light as can be, and i have lightmapping turned on all the way high settings. How come no blackness is showing at all ?

I'm fairly sure that "black lights" don't acutally create shadowing.

Not positive, but fairly sure.

How do i make shadowing then ? i really need it, im not sure where to go for a full explanation i just see alot of games like the undead demo wich is an excellent game that has the shadowing in it that makes it look even cooler. Plus screenshots that have shadowing in them.

I'd certainly assume that "shadowing" wasn't created itself, but is the byproduct of being outside a lit area.

You have a large light, so anything outside that light will be shadowed. You need a low ambience usually, but it still shadows.

If you want something to be 100% pitch black, you need to alter the ambience in the Global Settings in the Build Game Dialoge to 0.

Then, everything that is not lit will be black, 100%.
