Chapter 4/5 TODM makes my map look very bad

Summary

Hi! I’ve been using Legacy TODM since my map launched and it looks perfect with that, but since its going to be removed soon and I need to change to CH4/5 TODM im a bit worried. The map looks very bad with those TODM. Any ideas what I can try?

Here is a screemshot showcasing the difference between Legacy/CH4. Ch5 looks even worse.

I cant use custom lighting on all parts of my map, not possible with how many small and long areas I have.

I’ve messed around with the day sequence device tons without getting to to look anywhere close to Legacy.

Hi @KZRKevzter ,
Skydome was broken and on import from FN Creative 1.0 project into UEFN the similar problem occurs.

Maybe this free book will help as UEFN is based on UE5
Download the ‘Lighting in Unreal Engine 5 for Educators and Students’ guide

So all converted maps have this issue?

Bumping this again. 9 days before it goes away and my map is unplayable with the recent TODMs.

bumping this the TODM is so bad in FNC, needs a rework.
