Q: Is ist normal, that dynamic lights shine through MAP walls? Is there any other way to stop it than using a model entity for a wall which casts shadow? Jim Beam Commercial 6.40.5

I could of course place a model in between. and give it stencil shadows? I presume it is still impossible to at least tell the shader to ignore a remote light? Jim Beam Commercial 6.40.5
