No light for E3D

[ahmedd11064166]

Hello,
After I Finished Editing my E3D Model I added light to It but it doesn't apply at all

I tried to add Light and Shadow from E3D preferences (Render Settings) and It didn't apply anything too

I Couldn't find any solution for this, Help please.

I'm using Macbook pro 2012.

I would be willing to be that you don't have a dedicated GPU in that MacBook Pro.

Or, if it does have a real GPU, that it's not switched on. MacBook Pros that have dedicated GPU's can switch between the good card and a much less power-hungry fake GPU. You must go into your display settings and make the dedicated GPU always-on or only use E3D when you have the laptop plugged in (or have otherwise filled the criteria for the MacBook to switch to the more powerful GPU).

Short version: E3D requires a dedicated GPU.

Yeah, if that's what you have, you can't use Element. (Don't forget to mark the "correct answer" to close out the thread and so others in in the future can find the answer more quickly.)

I Found a Solution!
I Downgraded my E3D From V2.2 to 1.6, And Yes, Worked!.
