can lightmaped meshes react on dynamic lights?(THEY CAN)

[needforhint]

hi all irrlichters, I have a dilema wheter lightmaped meshes can react on ingame lights...and if not wheter their lighmap can be disabled so that they will.........doesn't have to be the my3d meshes ,

take a look at the render to texture tutorial I think that will answer your questions about lighting.. i think.

Isn't a lightmapped object simply one that has a lighting effect already applied to it, so the lighting becomes part of the stored texture? In that cause dynamic lights would affect the mesh, but the result would be funny, as the precalculated lighting can not be changed, so basically the result would be the combination a a static light and a dynamic light.

Look at the material flags.

LIGHTMAP (lightmaps only)
LIGHTMAP_LIGHTING (lightmaps + dynamic lighting)
and there x2 x4 versions.

Set the required one for the mesh in question and it "should" do both (according to the docs)

Does anyone know how to toggle the display of the lightmaps, when i switch a dynamic light on?
I think that would answer the question.

Thanks GX for those useful flags, but they seem to not do the trick, I can't even turn the lightmap off by EMT_SOLID, the texs still are visible sort of (but without shadows, that's a fact) and doesn't react to lights still....i use my3d format (and in Zdimitor's examples I sow no light reaction on a lightmaped mesh too)....is there any irrway how I could set a global ilumination for the scene right in the engine? or do exist any material flags setting a shiness or visibility of a texture?
..cause you see..I won't lightmap my scenes outside of irrlicht if they are not able to use irrlicht lights then, couse i am losing the very essence of irrlicht then

You must also use:
SetMaterialFlag(EMF_LIGHTING,true) (you may have set this to false because of the lightmaps but try it at true) to enable dynamic lights. Used in combination with the other flags is supposed to do the trick. Not sure what is going wrong there.

good luck

Geee, kisses GX, kisses, I'm through it, the lightmap stays and it reacts to lights
