Spotlight not lighting terrain?

Hey there, If the range and intensity of your spot light are both not at 100%, then try turning them up a little bit! It may be that the light isn't reaching where you want it to light up, or it may be that the intensity isn't enough to show up on the textures that you are using on your terrain... (I doubt that, but still, it could be a possibility...)

Anyhow, I think you should take a look at this post, as the third post down has a good example of how to create a flash light. It requires shaders in the scene, and a couple of other things.....

I take it you already have figured out how to toggle the flash light on and off??????

I have the EXACT same problem...i tried using planes but it didn't work too well.....

As most of the answers I've found here are dated, I thought I'd note that I was able to solve this just by changing the render mode of the spotlight to "important." Hope that helps somebody.

My problem here was that the intensity was actually to low, alltough i set it to 100%. Try duplicating the spotlight you already have. That way, the intesity adds up.

I'm still having this issue and these answers are for the wrong problem, I believe this is what he's talking about, my flashlight just disappears at certain angles and won't show at all, even in the editor if I look east the terrain is light clearly but when I turn west all forms of lighting disappear, it's entirely the angle at which I view terrain. Unfortunately I don't have a solution for this and am still searching for one.
