BASIC LIGHTING SET UP
• Setting the lighting correctly in Second Life will transform your world if you haven’t already set it up correctly
• To activate the light settings so that you can see the effects of lamps, candles depends greatly on which viewer you use. If your lighting isn’t properly set then you may not notice the effects of lights. Go to the graphics section of preferences in your selected viewer and then select from;
o Local Lights
o Ambient Lighting
o Advanced Lighting
o Some viewers may have additional lighting options
• Selecting each of these options creates a more realistic lighting effect inworld. You should now see a big difference in world if this wasn’t selected before. Sometimes people will get in touch believing a lamp isn’t working when all that’s needed is for the right light settings to be created
• Choose the remaining lighting options dependent on computer/internet capabilities. Shadows will cause an average or even a faster computer to slow down considerably
