i was working on my map yesterday and i put a light source in. the lighting looks much better except i now have a few probs.

1 Shadows of the troops aren't flat on the ground the slant upwards.

2 The underground areas have the same lighting as above ground. I want it to be dark underground

what type of lightsource did you use? directional? spot? or omni? directional is ideal for sunlight as it will cast shadows in it direction.

I used the directional lighting but the shadows slant up from the ground.

Have you tried placing your light at a different angle, or placing a shadow region?

take a ss of your ze lightsource. It's possible that you just diddn't grab it and move it up to the right postition. Remember to place that lighting exactly the way you would see the sun. Also I find it helpfull to make the icon size bigger buy putting 10 in the box: Dir. light icon size.

I've decided lighting isn't important but now i have a new problem.
I tried Rends adding sounds tut but now the clone wars era is crashing and the sounds still don't work in gcw.
