More realistic headlights.

Hello!
How can I make more realistic headlights?
I tried with two spotlights at max intensity, but is not enough…
The range is so so low.

Are you using spotlights? Dont they have a range value in them? The strength of them drops off significantly at range so you may need to bump up the intensity a lot as the range increases

No, is not enough. The intensity is at max. vertical range it's ok, but deeper range it's so so low... look at the screens. I have just 6-7 meters of light. I need aproximatly 25-35meters in the front of the truck.

Ill try it when I get home today and let you know, I swear Ive done this before haha

Ok, I will waiting your replay. Thanks!

Hi, sorry didnt check this site all weekend. I added a spotlight for a flashlight and I got some pretty long semi triangular lights on the ground, I had the length >100 and got it going across a room, far longer than the one in your picture. Maybe try lowering the angle of the spotlight more towards the road? Im assuming currently it is facing out of the truck parallel to the road. Or maybe decrease the cone angle a bit, but thats just a guess which may ruin the wide angle made by vehicle headlights.
