I'm making a Tahoe and I have the dominators on the side in the back windows. The els shows up at one angle but they don't show in another angle. I'll show you pics ( they are from my phone sorry). Can someone please help??

I had the same exact problem (but with an ION) . I tried all sorts of solutions. Only thing that fixed it was using a completely different light module.

I have the same problem with the ion as well. Does anyone out there know the reason for this?

I've talked to all the experienced modelers I know, and none seem to have a solution. :/ I'd recommend trying this :

Seems to work better for me.

Thanks I'll try

@ASTK9 @thegreathah try calculating normals. If it's the same problem I was having this'll fix it.

@ASTK9 Also make sure the emissive isn't overlaying with the base. Make sure the emissives are always just a little bit more in front. Even the slightest bit.
