Sunlight Actor doesn't light through my bsp *Sorted*

[legacy-nicky_baby]

I have some skylights that I have created in a ceiling and they use the "fake backdrop" function to show the skybox. I would also like my sunlight actor to cast light through these skylights.

Are there any flags or settings I have to change for it to cast light through?

Thanks

As I understand it.... you have no subtracted space above the skylights themselves? The sunlight actor needs to be placed inside subtracted space AFAIK. So you might have to subtract a large cube out above the skylights, place the sunlight actor in there, then add blocking volumes to stop people getting up there and then flag the cube sides as Fake Backdrop.

Where's the sunlight actor?

under "lights" in the actor class browser.

Thanks for any help...

I solved the problem by simply moving the sunlight actor to the highest point inside of bsp and then the sunlight streamed in!

Thanks again

No, I meant, "where in map is the sunlight actor" .
