When you join Jailbreak on console, apparently the game has pitch black shadows as of ~December of 2022. This date is an estimate. Apparently this issue is “unique to Jailbreak”.
This is unusual as we don’t use 0,0,0 lighting values anywhere, for day or night, and these screenshots almost look blacker than that. Almost like a rendering issue. I’d expect shadows to be like any other Roblox game here.
Is anybody else running into this with their console players? I will say that Jailbreak is typically one of the first to try out new features including Future lighting and new materials which could be why players don’t see this in other games. I can’t imagine it’s something we’re doing with how black these shadowed areas are.
After testing Jailbreak on my Xbox, I can confirm it’s an issue. It happens sometimes when loading in parts of the world, or, maybe when the time of day changes. I can’t exactly tell.
I don’t seem to have the issue in my game.
I recorded the lighting loading issue, but it’s not uploading to the forum. Getting footage from Xbox itself to here is quite the annoyance, and I should probably cut the footage down to the issue itself.
