Question by supersuneyh · Feb 21, 2014 at 12:38 PM · lightingspot lightno lighting

Non of the lights are working properly.

Hello, I'm a beginner at unity. And i am having a problem of lighting. Well, i made this by a help of a tutorial and now I'm having this problem of lighting. The problem is, if i take a spotlight or a point light it doesn't light the plane i am using. It could've been the scaling problem of the plane but i am not sure. ! As you can see in the picture, the selected one is the spot light. It is suppose to light the plane from the (scrap car) as a headlight. But somehow it doesn't light to the plane. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Bump, I have the same problem. Anything with a transform.position.y value less than 10 doesn't seem to be lighted with directional (or any) type of light.

I know it's been a year, but I found a solution that worked for me.

Check the culling mask of the light. The layer of the plane must be checked.

The culling mask of the spotlight is on Everything. And the layer of the plane (default) was also checked.

People, any suggestions/ideas?

Please do not post follow-ups as another ANSWER. I converted this one for you. It doesn't look like you have the light aimed at the plane in that screenshot - adjust the rotation/angle in inspector

Yeah i noticed, sorry for that. And thank you for the reply. I've checked and adjusted the rotations a little bit. But seems like it doesn't do any effect. But when i light it to the car i am using, it does show the lighting effect. ! You can see that from the second image. alt textalt text

¿Is the light inside the car? Looks like some part of the mesh might be blocking the light. If so, try positioning the light slightly outside the car (like 0.001 above or in front of the car).
