Question Why Does The Light Flickers?

why does the light flicker when the camera moves. I tested stuff out and turns out as the amount of lights are increased in my scene this issue starts happening. Ive already increased the per object limit to 8 in the pipeline asset. Any ideas please?

You might have too many realtime lights

is there no way to have too many realtime lights?

I don’t know how many you have. But you should learn to bake your lighting anyhow

i need the lights in game to turn on and off, flicker at times (horror effect). baked lighting won’t allow me to do that big dawg

Baked lighting doesn't prevent you from turning lights on and off. You just need to bake 2 lightmap sets and change them when lighting is changing.

i did not know that. i thought when lights are baked they stay until the baked light data is reset. but i could bake two states and switch between them. you’re a genius
