Trouble placing lights

[widowmaker]

Just for reference this has nothing to do with the map I asked for feedback on, but a different map.

In the rendered view when I place lights it goes to the blue lines on black as if there is nothing there. After that Unreal ED freezes.

This is not a new problem for me and I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and/or if there is a fix for it.

Thanks in advance.

yeah, its happened to me before. But, I restarted and everything worked fine. What you'll want to do is always edit in Software mode and not in Direct3D mode. It's always a little iffy w/ Direct3D, especially If you are using a nVidia card.
