hello,
my question is simple it is about activating lighting and shadows in the world editor,
well after creating my world, i choose menu->play->clean all and play all
i got the scene without shadows lighting ...
am i missing something ? or it is normal that the world editor cant run the scene with full effects ?

video options in the file section

tx for the reply,
i already tried it ( shadows on) , but nothing changed ... do i need to specify if an object should cast shadow ?

do you have deferred or forward renderer in video options? (simple renderer doesn't support shadows)

i used deferred rendering, i am jsut activating the sun in the environment options,
is theres is any need to add lights manually or just activating the sun is enought ?
tx

what system do you have?
cpu, gpu, os, ram?
do you have the latest graphics drivers?
can you make a screenshot of the issue (including opened window of video options+environment options)

geforce GTX 8800 with updated graphics card, os : windows xp
here are two images . the first one in the world editor, and the second one after playing the scene from the world editor.

Maybe you haven't set gfx file for sun. Environment Options/Sun/Custom and Image line.

ah that fixed the problem !!!
tx u all for the support and quick responses ..
