Paper2d: Spotlights Do Not Work

Howdy AnswerHub:

I have what is probably a dumb newguy question: I am trying to light a 2d environment and only the directional light seems to do anything. What I want is for a conular region of light to emit from some ceiling lights and for the area around those lit regions to be much darker. The directional light works for getting the correct lighting level for the darker areas, but for some reason my spotlights, which I’m trying to use for the lit up areas, don’t appear to do anything. I’m sure I’m just missing something easy.

I did make the sprites and actors DefaultLitSpriteMaterial. I’ve included photos below - the photo with the spotlight selected includes the settings I have in place for it.

Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Did you ever solved this? I am having the same issue :frowning:
