Summary

Hi. So with the may 2nd update the legacy todm will be removed and im not sure what to do. My map looks perfect with legacy todm and its been built around it. When I change to ch4/ch5 todm, it looks awful. The lighting is bad with every setting, all my materials looks awful and im getting quite stressed.

The map has already been so unfortunte with discoverability despite millions upon millions of plays, but this will be the final blow if I cant manage to fix it.

may 2nd 2025 35,00 . This was imported from FN Creative 1.0 and was broken in the feature samples of UEFN it easier to put the current lighting in Creative 2.0 as this also supports Lumen lighting in Core ue 5

nothing to do with chapters just so happened to be when implements BEFORE uefn existed.
