I’m having a problem with the Futute Lighting mode. I’m making a survival game and my objective is to make as realistic as possible but the Future lighting doesn’t work.

It’s EXACTLY the same as the shadow map, it doesn’t have reflections, realistic shadows or anything diferent from shadow map and it isn’t just in roblox studio, when i play any game that has future lighting it has the same problem and it started since the future mode was created.

Idk if it’s a problem with roblox or with my computer that can’t render this mode, i has the graphics at max in studio and roblox.

Do you have any light instances in your game?

That’s intentional. Future lighting only works on light instances, not shadows.

Can you please send screenshots?

Interesting. Is this issue present on a new baseplate?

#13

It’s present in every game that i create, and this issue is in other games that i play too.

#14

You need to have a specific configuration to render this mode? like a good pc?

#15

then it probably has something to do with roblox optimizing for your pc. If you have a bad pc, roblox is likely to optimize the lighting and stuff

Not that I know of. It should work on all computers. Have you tried restarting or reinstalling Roblox Studio?

Do you have any external programs that could be effecting Roblox?

#20

I would suggest first play it, and make sure the graphic quality is at max. See if this fixes it.
