Level Design Lightning Problem

[=[PMC]= breakfast]

yo,
This is my Problem :


As you can see my Room is Dark but the Meshes are still bright -.-'. I dont know what to do. ( The Room is a Zone )



But strangly the window-frame is dark ?

Edit : Someone know how to make the meshes dark so they fit with the ambience ?

Select the Window frame

(F4)Properties
Display
Ambient Glow + Set it to about 10 to match the other areas.

But to really see why i need to see the light, where it is placed and it properties.

Make sure you extend the light radious as well to about 250- 350

That and it wouldn't hurt to try messing around with the scaleglow =)

StaticMesh Properties->Display->ScaleGlow

it's directly above the skins
you can't make it brighter but you can make it darker 0.0-1.0 no higher then 1.0
essentially it's an option to scale the amount of light it receives
Oh yea and it doesn't affect how much Ambient light it gets so if you use ambient light
it'll still be lit... however it does affect how much light is taken from other light sourcesand one other thing... the reason in most unrealgames why textures are really bright by default is because static meshes for whatever reason take Ambient*2=brightness so they made textures bright to offset it... so the only work around if you are useing ambient brightness is to brighten up the textures and then lower the ambient brightness =(

for yours i'd take a gander at setting ScaleGlow=0.5-0.7 somewhere in that range if not less that scaleGlow is also usefull for staticmeshes in outdoor areas where you use a SunLight to light the map
