reepblue Posted September 30, 2023 Posted September 30, 2023 Playing with lights and it seems now the shadows have "blocks" on them. Must be in-game.

Josh Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 What should I look for in that image? Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
reepblue Posted October 1, 2023 Author Posted October 1, 2023 Not set up to upload videos on this machine and I don't feel like doing 2 factor auth with Google right now so here's a zip with a video. lightbugvido.zip Quote Cyclone - Ultra Game System - Component Preprocessor - Tex2TGA - Darkness Awaits Template (Leadwerks) If you like my work, consider supporting me on Patreon!
Josh Posted October 1, 2023 Posted October 1, 2023 Oh, okay, I can tell what is happening just by looking at the behavior. Ultra uses a technique called "clustered forward rendering". It appears the spotlight settings might not be considered correctly to tell which lights appear in which cells. Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
reepblue Posted October 1, 2023 Author Posted October 1, 2023 I've been having issues with all light types and the editor doesn't seem to show anything wrong. Might be worth adding "Real Time Rendering" feature for the editor so you can easily test runtime visuals. I can also send you my project which makes map loading 100 times easier.

reepblue Posted October 7, 2023 Author Posted October 7, 2023 This happens on both Nvidia and AMD GPUs. Quote Cyclone - Ultra Game System - Component Preprocessor - Tex2TGA - Darkness Awaits Template (Leadwerks) If you like my work, consider supporting me on Patreon!
Josh Posted October 7, 2023 Posted October 7, 2023 Yeah, it's a bug in the culling system, not in Vulkan. Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Josh Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 This only happens with spot lights, right? Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.

Josh Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 Box lights seem fine, but yeah I need to look closer at point and spot light volume intersection... devtest.zip Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Josh Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 Something else strange. This doesn't seem to appear on the box lights, so maybe it will go away once I fix the main issue. Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Josh Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 It is strange that this seems to not happen at all in the editor... Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Josh Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 This may have been caused by the Light::SetRange command not triggering the lighting bounding box to update. I updated the editor and it seems to be fixed in there...continuing to test... Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
Solution Josh Posted October 11, 2023 Solution Posted October 11, 2023 The reported issue is fixed. Quote Let's build cool stuff and have fun.
