A couple of things on the subs spotlights: 1) Whenever you're using Gradient Lights always turn the the Falloff to "None" - this is a bug and really screws up the falloffs. 2) The range value of 51 is not even reaching to the rock (even with the offset) - I'd set the offset to 0 and up the range value until you get some illumination on the rock. You'll also want to back the Edge Sofness way off, you're not seeing it now becuase it only affects the actual illumination. 3) I'd turn SS Hard/Soft off on the spot but turn on Volume Visible Light and then in the spots Material editor switch it to a Volume Texture and mess around with the Density and Edge Softness values. This should give you a softer "cone" and fill the volume as well. The only other comment I'd make is that the Sun Shadow Intensity value of 2 seems a little low, as well as the Shadows purple color. Excelent work! Dan
