Disappearing Lights

Post » Tue Nov 20, 2012 1:35 pm

I've started another attempt at using the creation kit, and I've come across an annoying bug that I hadn't noticed when I was using it a few months ago. I'm trying to create a building interior, and I placed lots of torches a non-shadow-casting lights around, which seems to work fine.
When I run around the cell in game, though, the lights aren't visible until you get very close to them, and then they'll suddenly appear if you take a few paces back, the light turns off again. I'm pretty new to the creation kit, so I'm not really sure what's causing this. It seems to only apply to cells which I create.

Does anyone know how to fix it?

Cheers

I watched the video, but the problems I'm having don't seem to be related to the number of lights in a scene. I have tested with just one, and it still doesn't appear until I walk right up to it.

What's your clip distance in your cell's lighting template?
