Question Only one directional light can have a cookie

I am setting up a scene where one directional light is used for lighting/shadows.
A second directional light is used to project a cookie.

Unforuntately this doesnt work. The second directional light only illuminates.
I am aware that the second directional light doesnt cast shadows. Does this influence the use of lightcookies as well?

In short should this - multiple directional lights with cookies - be supported?

 

Did you find a solution for this problem?

We also would like to have two directional lights, one with a cookie (at a constant angle) and the other one with a changing angle (aka sun) casting shadows.

 

no - unforuntately never found a solution for this

we thought about using a decal but havent tested it (yet)

 

Seems that light cookies with multiple directional lights support was added since 2023.2.0a6. (no backporting to 2023.1)

 

that is good to know - so we'll be able to use that at the end of 2024 or something

 

agree

 

Rather May/June 2024 when the 2023.3 LTS comes out.
