Having trouble creating driving lights (DRLS)...

  • I keep using extra_ten as a way to get my DRLS to turn on and stay on all the time.


    But they're not coming on.


    I created the light. renamed it 'extra_ten' (also tried naming it headlight_l.)


    Is that all I need to do, to make it work?

  • There are plenty of potential issues.

    - Your material hierarchy could be wrong (emissive material may be below glass material).
    - Your model hierarchy could be wrong (extra_ten may be below headlight_l [assuming you're using a model where the headlight is attached to the headlight glass as it should be]).
    - Your mesh may not be set to an emissive material
    - Your mesh may have the wrong ID in polygon and / or vertex mode (needs to be 0)

    There are other potential causes, start by checking those four items.

    I've made various mistakes in my past, but I've never repeated the same one twice.
