Hi all!

So I’m working on my student capstone project and everything is basically finished ready to be packaged,  
I’m trying to bake the lighting in my first level and when i go to bake, it goes through the extensive process of baking and appears to work, but even so the text box still reads “LIGHTING NEEDS TO BE REBUILT (x amount)”  
I dont really understand how to get past this any help would be greatly appreciated!

My directional light and sky light are stationary and any other lights are set to static.

Hi!

Maybe because you have more than 1 level and the other one(s) haven’t been baked?

Hi I’ve tried baking both of my levels on a preview to see if this would help, Unfortunantly the problem still persists
