Is there any rendering cost in having lots of static spotlights in one room? I'm wondering about the (nifty) directional lighting they do on models etc.... --Cargo Cult 06:24, 26 Sep 2005 (PDT)

Making light_spot bloom?
Anybody know how to make a light_spot bloom (HDR) or have a link to a doc? I'm having no luck finding a doc myself. (Part of my map has a darkish sloped hallway, and I'd like to have the bright light at the top of the hall (the only lightsource) bloom for players who are looking at it/moving up the ramp.)
