You mean light up that part of the map or add lights in the map?

I have used the method of adding interor light by editing the lightmaps in sapien, then running radiosity.

hope that helps.

one way: make your light a material, then change the radiosity value in the shader

and what should I do in the shader properties then?
Just only set a higher radiosity?

there are other settings you can change like tint, color of the emitted light, etc...just play around with them until you get the desired effect.

remember to re-run structure in tool for the shader changes to take effect and do your lightmaps in sapien... tool doesn't do good lights.
