Lighting in TSE

by Kevin French · in General Discussion · 07/01/2004 (5:40 am) · 5 replies

I've looked all over the forums to find some info regarding the lighting in TSE. I'm planning on moving to TSE in the fall (once I have the cash to buy the license) and I'm trying to figure out if I should get the lighting pack that is available as well. If TSE already has this in the engine,I will not bother obviously. I would hate to buy the lighting pack and it not be needed with TSE. Thanks in advanced for any info.

John has said he's going to work to allow the lighting pack to be upgraded into the engine (just as it is for the TGE).

Hi Kevin,

The Lighting Pack will be updated to support TSE. All of the tools will perform the same functions, so everything you'll learn while using the TGE Lighting Pack will translate nicely into the TSE Lighting Pack.

You can find more Lighting Pack related information here:

Hope this helps!

If I plan to buy TSE and have some really nice lightintg, do I have to buy also a lighting pack? Is lighting in TSE well enough?

If you want the features that the lightingpack offers you, in TSE.. then you will have to buy it, of course.
If you already bought the license for TGE Lightingpack, then the TSE lightingpack upgrade is free.
