Are Omni Lights Broken?

marty

I can add a directional or spot light to a scene and instantly see the difference.

But it I add an omni light, I can tweak it endlessly and never see any changes in my scene lighting.

Is this typical behavior for omni lights? Are they possibly broken in 3.0?

Change the color and increase the intensity to 10. If you already have a strong directional light decrease it's intensity to better see point light changes.

Godot Point lights max value is 16 , i don't know why, it's perhaps a bug.

Tweak the range. For more realism change the falloff to inverse square(Attenuation).

Thanks for the leg up, Megalomaniak.

I was finally able to get things to start popping by adjusting the omni's Attenuation property. The two 'ease'-based presets help a lot.
