In the current project I'm working on, We have a darkened room we want the players to explore with a lantern, eventually ending their exploration in a specific location, triggering a Kismet/Matinee sequence. Instead of having the player fumbling around until they find the trigger volume, I suggested we include a smaller light source into the area to push players in the right direction. I decided to use a lower-poly mesh with baked normals.

| I brought the model into Maya, reduced it down, and created diffuse, normal, and displacement maps based off od the highest poly mesh. |
