Hi, I have a problem with foundations.

(There is a photo)

Photo shows the problem, and the problem is that daylight penetrates through the roof and walls and it really pisses me off while I'm playing. Is there an option to solve this problem?

Looks like the usual glitchy lighting and black shadows with a split level. Could you upload that lot to the gallery so I can download into my game and check it?

I uploaded it to the gallery Standard smile (It has some modifications by the way, but the glitch has just showed up, and mods were on this place for a long time) My Origin ID is obviously Wikozo, and place is called "Lighting problem"

Thanks. It's not CC/Mod related and it's not daylight, it's a glitch that happens in split levels. If you put in some windows you'll see the top of them goes black too. There is no fix unfortunately Frown

No unfortunately. Frown I actually ended up giving up on that build because it upset me so much and I couldn't find a decent work around. Some times if you move the stairs around you can find spots where it doesn't do it but then you're stuck with that spot and if you change too much around it it comes back anyway. Such a bummer.
