Having trouble creating driving lights (DRLS)...

kreemerz · Jul 19th 2021

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.
