Lighting in Siege Editor

After having changed lightning and selecting "Update all node lightning", are the changes supposed to be applied and visible at your map? In my map, nothing happens, the lightning effects still look like white streaks hanging in the sky or yellow dots hanging above candles.

When I went through the Siege University tutorials and did the lighting step, I also found that the lights appears as colors streaks for the ambient light, and a yellow dot for the candle. Either they didn't put that part into the Beta release (once again, key word: BETA

), or that's how it's supposed to be.

Has it been like that (light hanging in the air as colour streaks) in your other maps as well, or was it only in the tutorial? I am currently building a couple of maps, but I don't dare to mess around with the lightning since I haven't found any way to view what my settings actually looks like.

I've seen people on other boards discussing how marvellous it was to see the sunshine come alive at the map, so obviously there must be some way to view your lightning settings

Or maybe that was people who used the Tankviewer and mapconverter to play their own mods...

I have no idea

I have built only the tutorial map, and the beginnings of a second, but that had no lighting... so I don't know how it should look...
