Altiris:
Thanks to Telamon (one of the lead moderators at roblox) said that Blockland fakes their lighting on a fourm site called the ironnoob, for people who follow him they end up believing that and so I met numerous people saying the samething as well. I decided to post a thread on the site and made a video about the lighting to clear blocklands name. A couple days later Telamon(Shedletsky) replied asking what kind of lighting technique we use, meaning I have cleared the rumor of quote on quote fake lighting.


I just felt like posting that, I feel like I have some done something great.

If you wanna see the video its here

Blockland does have "dynamic" lighting.
The lighting on the bricks is dynamic, because its calculated in realtime.

The downside of blocklands lighting is that it got vertex-lighting for bricks.
To get the effects shown in your video you need per-pixel-lighting, like every modern game got.

But! Vertex-lighting AND per-pixel-lighting are both dynamic.

Static lighting is precalculated and saved into the map itself (like the shadows/lights in bedroom)
