RE: Tips for lighting

Step 1: Have 2 level editor windows open. One of them with your level.
Step 2: Open a level from Amnesia the Dark Descent, which is themed the same as your level.
Step 3: Observe, and "copy". Get inspired. That's what i do. They made the billboards and lighting work really good!
It was also that way i learned about pointlights attached to lamps.

Sorry for not telling you the direct way, but there is none.
Think about where the player will be looking at the billboards, and remember: The billboard will always look strange if you focus your eye on them.

Tip: Use low colors for billboards. 0.3 or 0.2 for each color.

EDIT: And light_dust particles work for windows.

Trying is the first step to success.
