Importing / exporting light properties
Thu, 4 Oct 2007 08:45:07 +0000
There appears to be no way of determining from an exported FBX file what the
cone properties are for a spot light. The only property exported of this nature
is the "Cone Angle" which after some investigation turns out to be the
mid-point between the inner constant-beam angle and the outer fall-off angle.
There is no indication what the range of the fall-off area might be.

Does anyone know of a workaround for this? I'm writing a light mapping tool and
the lack of this information is quite a problem.
