Question by HildePedroni · Aug 16, 2013 at 04:44 PM · buglightshadowunity4directx 11

Unity pro 4, shadow problems

I'm using Unity 4.2 pro version and i'm having some problems with lights and shadows. When i put a point light on my scene and set it to cast shadows, i receive the message that says "Only directional lights can have shadows in forward rendering". So, then I go to the player settings, and set the lights to deferred, voilá, the lights just disappear from my scene. Then i click in the option to use directx 11 and the lights appears again but without shadows. Is that a bug in unity 4.2?

My GPU is a Geforce gtx 770m, and i have directx 11 installed.

Have you tried baking your scene?

Yes, the message i receive was: "Nothing to bake"

I tried to downgrade unity, but i got the same error. So, i think it might be a problem with Directx 11.

You could also try disabling mesh compression. Also don't forget get that light mapping requires objects to be static. $$anonymous$$ake sure the appropriate objects are marked as static in the inspector.
