I think that doing that will have a side effect of turning your computer, into a toaster. Maybe in a few years time we’ll get this but not soon.

I agree with every aspect of you saying we need better GI. Maybe, JUST MAYBE, we can get SDFGI shown in Hack Week 2019, and with the FiB P.3 lighting system would be amazing.

In the link below, Roblox states that they’re planning to have it done by the end of the year.
How did you get the reflection? Thats not a feature of FiB3

Having an issue with ceiling lights - no matter what I try, I can’t seem to get them to light up the ceiling.
Here’s my lights with the ShadowMap technology:
Now with
Future technology:
The lights use PointLights; they’re marginally better over the SpotLights I was using before, but I’m still stuck. Also, will we get an option to dull or remove the reflection as shown above the lights in the ceiling here?

Getting weird z-fighting artifacts when you place a surface light on the same face as a decal/texture:
edit: This seems to be with any surface light and any material too

Really wish this worked on Spotlights 
It doesn’t look very good when you have to use a Pointlight
Are Spotlights supposed to work because they disapear when I enable Future.

Actually, I’m pretty sure this is just soft shadows for objects that are further away from a light source, simulating how light works in real life.
It’s not a performance optimization since if you bring the object really close to the light source, the shadows become harder and harder, regardless of how far out the shadows have to go.
I think they’re trying to simulate how lighting works in real life, but it doesn’t work in a lot of instances, such as horror and stealth games.
Perhaps toggling hard shadows only could be an option per-light source for a production release @vrtblox?

are the parts that the lights are parented to invisible? like @anon66957764 said, it’s something related to opaque parts (with .Shadow property enabled), seems to work fine for me if the property is disabled
