Official Feedback wanted on smoother Freeform Lights

I have not looked at the code (and do not know how much reworking was required to create the Soft Freeform Light), but perhaps you could allow us to switch between Sharp and Soft via a little toggle box?

I understand why you might not want to do this — as keeping in the old functionality creeps the complexity of maintaining the code — but I felt like I should ask, since both Sharp and Soft types could prove useful to people.

 

I want it even softer. The sharp lines - in version 1 - looked extremely out of place in my game and would still look out of place in version 2. I just use Sprite mode, so perhaps that's really the only solution for my use case.

 

The softer ones does for sure look better in general, and we'd prefer that if we had to chose. Haven't used them enough yet for it to change anything for our project.

 

I would like to have a sharpness slider if possible. There are situations where I want to mimic harsher light shafts and there are times when I want a smoother glow. Please don’t limit us to one look or another.

 

I would love this function! In my project lights are a bit too sharp and we don't have a proper solution to this.

 

I like the softer one better but its up to preference and environment. Good concept

 

I want to be able to adjust the roundness every point. and, please add 2D depth of field.

 

Thank you !!

 

Thank you !!

 

I think it is good idea. I believe with lighting and shadows the games will look better and the freeform light is very useful.

 

I meet the same problem and find this thread today. I don't know if you have resolved your problem but I find you can use blurred sprite light to simulation freefrom light to make it look better.
