Light rendering for Android

Development Discussion Android Development
#1

When viewing in 64bit Windows the app runs fine. Soon as I deploy and run on android device I cannot see rendered text or 3d objects. Sprites and ui load fine. Is this a specific lighting limitation to android or am I missing something. If a limitation then how do I light my game area up? :slight_smile:

Rendered text lives in a blueprint which has a child spotlight illuminating.

I haven’t tried recently but if you are trying to use a Text Render component, it won’t work on mobile (unless they fixed it). Did you try using a WIDGET (UMG)?

Hi EvilRadish,

Have you had a look at the Mobile Development Guide documentation? It goes over some of the limitations for lighting in developing for mobile devices.
