    I apologize if this has already been asked or posted somewhere, but is there any way to disable shadows or turn off light map or anything. For instance I only have 472/1042 objects but my light map indicator is already in the 80%. I know its okay to go over the light map budget but going way over will create weird shadows on a lot of things.

    I think turning light bake off means the shadows have to be rendered dynamically. Reduces your light map % but increases performance. If you start getting frame rate issues, turn light bake back on.

    Thanks for the replies, I've been messing around with light bake turning it on and off. That'd be nice if you were able to turn shadows completely off so its as if everything is lit. Basically most enclosed structures are dark without lighting placed or an opening for natural lighting to come in.
