info_lighting is an internal point entity available in all 
Source games. It can be used to change the lighting origin of a prop_static or a vehicle prop. Set the prop's lightingorigin keyvalue to point at this entity to make the prop light as if it was at the info_lighting's origin. Good for prop_static entities that are embedded in world geometry (like rocks/windows/etc). It also changes the cubemap origin, meaning the prop will show reflections from the closest cubemap to the info_lighting entity. For a prop_dynamic, use info_target.
Important:(in all games since 
) Using an info_lighting will disable per-vertex lighting where supported, and revert back to point-based vertex lighting.Keyvalues
- Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]
- The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g.
parentnameortarget).
Also displayed in Hammer's 2D views and Entity Report.See also: Generic Keyvalues, Inputs and Outputs available to all entities
