Why is it that everyone needs more than 8 lights?

Can someone give me a reason for more than 8 lights?

i have town at night. in that post nuclear town are some burning barrels that light the town for poeple. Theese barrels are blinking like fireplace. There are also some event like player-night flare and other special fx (shooting) There can be more than 8 barrels on the screen. And what i do?

More than 8 lights per scene are in the works, if not already in 0.12. More than 8 lights per model are more or less useless, but multipass rendering can archieve this.

you could write a function which turns off the lights in a loop if there are more than 8 ones on the screen at once. something like a lightmanager.

Niko said that he made support for more than 500 lights. Maybe this will be avaible in next version.
