    Matt,

    Check your light fixtures. It appears that some if not all of them are defined as "Points" instead of "Spots". I don't know why Chief's content team has them that way but it really isn't correct. "Point" source lights sometimes have too large a radiant globe and can cause this sort of thing.

    It's not the Ray Trace Engine that causes these problems - it's the lights themselves being improperly defined. A "Point" source throws light in all directions and if the "Globe" is too large in can partially be outside of the wall - it's kind of like a "Fireball".
