well if you look i think the efect you want is curently on the wall but you might want that on the floor

You put the light way too close to the ground. I usually use a 3x or 5x invisible-painted brick for ambient lights like that.

I would put the light source slightly higher than halfway up the height of the ceiling for these. Since there's three lights in a fairly small area, you may want to consider only two or one actual sources between them if there's going to be any others nearby.

oh ok, that would make sense. I finally settled on doing something similar to that, but not quite the same. I'll fix it in a little bit. I bet that will save a lot of lights too, currently I'm using 9 dim ambient lights and 3 players lights, lol

Also, since shaders, invisible painted bricks don't work quite as predictably as they used to. In some situations, it'll be obvious they're there.
