Terrain lighting issues

#1 What do you mean by particle lighting? Forgive me :P

#2 Lighting from a particle, such as those emitted by explosions, projectiles and any in-game particle emitter. For example, the 3 or so creating those jets of flame in the above screenshot.

#3 Okay, I get you. Odd, I've never seen this issue before. Have you made recent changes to anything light-related? Seems the obvious question :P.

#4 I commented out a few lines in blender_asm.asm that double the intensity of terrain lighting. That should have the same effect on all terrain though, and not make such obvious seams, unless I seriously misunderstand the code.
This issue has been plaguing me for a while though, and I've only just gotten around to looking into it. I honestly can't remember though if it predates the changes I made to blender_asm.asm


Someone using TGEA reported a similar issue here, but the fix used there doesn't seem to apply to TGE (or at least I can't find the equivalent function in TGE). It is worth noting that like the thread I linked to, I'm using terrains made for older versions of Torque.

#5 A little late but... it looks like perhaps you are missing the dynamic light bitmap? It's hard-coded in terrData.cc to be "common/lighting/lightFalloffMono"(png/jpg)

#6 I think that's it. We moved common inside our core directory. That might explain a few other lighting hitches too, I remember seeing a message about missing textures and not being able to track down where they were referenced in script.

#7 Indeed, because they weren't referenced in script. They're in the engine itself. Which is a really poor programming practice, but something we've probably all done at one point or another.
