Light Building Problem! Help me!

Development Rendering

Hi everyone
I have problem with Build Lighting in each level (W7 64bit).When I Build Lighting Swarm Agent show me Message: “The Lighting build failed! See the log for more information”.
Anyone can help me? It’s very important. (Sorry for my bad english)

Hi kubas1129,

could you probably post this into the UDK forum? https://forums.epicgames/forums/366-UDK Because normally this here is the Unreal Engine 4 forum. :wink:

A common reason why swarm doesn’t want to build your light is, that you have to start udk with admin rights before you build it.
Also make sure that you have a lightmass importance volume in your level :slight_smile:
Take a look at this thread: https://forums.epicgames/threads/707525-Build-lighting-not-working-crashing

Thanks for answer, but I try run UDK and SwarmAgent as admin, i use lightmass volume and it didn’t work. Sorry for my mistake, I did not know that this forum is about UE4 :slight_smile:

No problem :slight_smile:

I change switch render to DirectX 9 and it is working for now :smiley: (on epicgames forum I’m also kubas1129 and I started also a thread there ) Thanks again for answer :slight_smile:
