| Hi folks, noob question. I just started here and built a building. Unfortunately it is extremely dark inside. I have tried the torch and lamps, but they don't seem to actually emit any light. How can I get my place lit up? |

| I'm pretty sure you have to enable shadows? |

| I have searched the forums and help and cannot find nothing useful about lighting or shadows, which seems pretty strange to me. How would I enable shadows? |

1. Open roblox studio 2. Click on lighting 3. Change global shadows to enabled |

I found the less than obvious download link for Roblox Studio and downloaded it, but unfortunately I am running a Mac and cannot use it. Thanks anyway.
If anyone is interested they can check out my unfinished and unlit building, a modified third iteration Menger Sponge. |

| I can help, but it'd seem to be a waste to help you. |

| I managed to get Roblox Studio working (slowly) on a Windows laptop, so your assistance would hopefully not be a total waste. I played with the ambient lighting and that helped somewhat, but what I really need is interior lighting. Any help you can provide would be appreciated. |

| That sounds ideal, can you point me to a link or thread that would help me learn how to do that? |

| Ok, thanks will have a look. I have to say though, it seems to me that a basic necessity like an interior light that actually works should be a standard item. |
