Game: GLQuake

Тип: Toggle

Значение по умолчанию: 1

Включает рендереж светящихся шаров вокруг источников динамического света.
Note: When this toggle is enabled every dynamic light source will have a sphere of light surrounding it. When this toggle is disabled the light sources will not have the ball of light around them and lighting will be displayed properly on walls, just like in WinQuake. When this toggle is enabled there will be a slight decrease in game performance, but it's a small price to pay for having light sources rendered correctly It is recommended that this toggle be disabled.
