  • This is a follow up on BUG-226511

  • Rider said BUG-226511 should be fixed on EEP build Second Life Release 6.1.1.525205 (64bit), however it seems to only be partially fixed.

    Steps To Reproduce

  • Log 2 avatars into http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Athena%20Island/95/204/22, one on EEP build Second Life Release 6.1.1.525205 (64bit) & one on default release.

  • Have ALM enabled & shadows set to Sun, Moon & Projectors on both viewers.

  • Set draw distance to 64m or lower on both viewers - not necessary to reproduce but makes the bug easier to see.

  • Use a windlight/environment setting that is dark enough to see lighting effects - midnight is fine, or use/import the attached windlight xml from BUG-226511

  • Set camera to face the chicken house & zoom camera view close to & further away from the chicken house.

  • Compare what you see on the EEP build & on default release.

    Observed Behaviour

  • On the EEP viewer, when your camera is further away from the house, you will see the area under the house light up brightly.

  • See Fig 1 attached for behaviour on EEP.

  • The higher your draw distance, the further away your camera has to be to see the bright light under the house.

  • On default release, there is no bright light under the house at any camera distance.

  • See Fig 2 attached for behaviour on default release.

  • It looks like the EEP viewer is rendering some projector light sources as point light sources at the cusp of draw distance & greater, however I'm not sure that theory is correct as I cannot reproduce that theory when trying to set up a simple repro scene from scratch.

    Expected Behaviour

    There should not be bright lighting rendered under the house as your camera moves further away.
