Generate Lightmap problem..

[Echo-Zero]

Hi all,

Anyone here who can explain this problem and solve?

I made a simple terrain, with only 1 tree.
Next i wanted to generate lightning to test shadows.

But after it was done, it said:
)
Generating atlas lightmaps blahblah..
*** FAILED ***
)
Now everything has gone crazy, shadow in sky, things in the air, argh!

Ive read a post like this but there hasnt been an answer yet.
Any1 know what this "FAILED" means?

Did you set a direction for the sun and stuff?

Oh, and I used to get the failed thing until I got the lightmap samples.

Looks like its best to use Trace Terrain, Primary and low when generating...

You could try using the 'clean lightmaps folder' option then try, and doing the sun / lightflare stuff.

and Trace Terrain, Primary and low when generating is not the best, its just the quickest.
