Remember when the game looked way from 2016-2018 AND it ran better on people's hardware? What happened to that? I want the torch in Isle and Crescendo to cast shadows on everything like it used to. It looked so much better and it ran way better than the game does now. Remember when the Dorm didn't lag more than rec royale?

I should clarify that this "lag" came from the dynamic lighting update, which changed the shaders and lighting, and then the lag insued. The game looked fine before, but now the game itself will reduce its quality cuz it cant run

  This is logistically impossible due to a couple of reasons. The biggest one being that back in early 2019, we switched from a baked lighting model to a real time lighting model. This was in part so we could support dynamic lighting in UGC rooms, and also for more parity for mobile versions of the game like in smartphones or standalone VR devices. Supporting two different lighting models would have been foolish and would make development much more harder. Easier to just implement real time lighting for all devices. 
  
  So unfortunately, we can't restore the old lighting model.
