I'm having a wee bit of trouble with my snow map at the moment, it's almost ready for release but the invisible light posts refuse to behave and always come out blocky no matter what I do, I currently have the intensity at about 0.002 and visibility of 1750 on my INGRNLMP and this comes out very blocky and looks rubbish, just wondering if I could have some advice on what sort of settings I should be looking at.

What I did in Frozen Canyon was that I lowered the LightGreenTint.. worked for me.

You could also try rising the other lighting-related keys (LightBlueTint and LightRedTint, although the light might simply turn white with this method).

Also, what Ixith already said, try putting the map's level down to 0.000001.
