    Hi all, Using the Unity lightmapping system and emissive materials I have this disco ball effect!!
    Anyone know how I can stop this? Cool effect, but not what I want right now :)

    Hey Mustard-Design,

    do you have emissive surfaces anywhere nearby? A red/turquoise one?

    Cheers

    Only the headlamps that you can see.
    They are simple materials with HDR Emission
    Thanks

    Try removing them and using normal baked lights instead. The progressive lightmapper does not play well with small emissive materials.
