Talk:Light spot

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)

For static geometry, they cost the same as a regular light. (If named, they cost the same as a regular named light.) I don't know about dynamically-lit objects (eg, dynamic props, physics props, and NPCs), but going by my recollection of the math involved, I suspect that the cost would be of the same time complexity as for a regular light. —Maven ^(talk) 09:24, 26 Sep 2005 (PDT)

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.
