max_lights

Range:

Type:

Remarks:

• If the level contains blocks, it must be compiled with [Create Meshes] for using more than 8 lights.
• Not more than 8 dynamic lights can influence a single model, block, or terrain chunk. The light influence ranges can be adjusted through d3d_lightres.
• This variable must be set in the first frame before loading the level.
• All dynamic lights are clipped against the light_view frustum. If the active view is different to the predefined camera view, the light_view pointer must be set to the active view, or to NULL when there are several active views and the lights must not be clipped.

Example:

void main()
{
  max_lights = 20;
  level_load("dungeon.wmb");
  ...
