    Hi All
    Hope someone can point me in the right direction, I can't seem to find any method to turn the Halo on and off from a script on a light, also cant find how to change the projection method or the shadowquality setting per light either. Is this not allowed from scripts?
    Thanks
    Chris

    I don't think there is any way to change the other settings, but you should be able to remove the halo by setting the flare property to null.

    It's possible with C# and System.Reflection:

    var haloComponent= GetComponent("Halo");
    var haloEnabledProperty = haloComponent.GetType().GetProperty("enabled");
    haloEnabledProperty.SetValue(haloComponent, enable, null);
