Im getting a pretty consistent error with some lights in a model. I can restart enscape and often it goes away, but sometimes I can’t shake it. Often the lights in my model project a kind of square pattern onto whatever surface they’re hitting. Not sure how to fix this…help! ![Lighting problem.PNG.jpg](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/chaosprd/original/3X/b/9/b92d22c32a2c656d4d84afd6fa1bccac71be23a5.jpeg) ---

Sorry to hear that. It’s a known bug that we cannot reproduce to fix. There were significant changes in lighting in the recent previews, however. You may try the current preview version to check if it is fixed for you. ---

Still does it with the most recent preview: need to re-load Enscape (sometimes even close it and open it again rather than just clicking on the _Start Enscape_ button). ---

@ElZoel , from a [different thread](https://forum.enscape3d.com/index.php?thread/3382-lighting-issue/&postID=28524#post28524) I can see that you found a solution - as mentioned, a dedicated [update to Enscape 2.6](https://forum.enscape3d.com/index.php?thread/2317-how-can-i-make-sure-that-my-enscape-is-up-to-date/) should also help. Is there any reason why you haven’t tried that yet? 🙂 ---

Pardon so much for the late reply… this is usually caused by outdated NVIDIA drivers, a upgrade to our latest release can also not hurt, but please tell him to update his GPU driver accordingly and let me know if he’s using an AMD card instead, which would then be a new problem.
