[1.0.21] 3d Lights don't light Flickering surfaces

If you have a sector that has the "Light Flicker" setting on, it seems like 3d lights don't light up any of the surfaces.
EDIT: I have NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4800 (latest drivers) as my video card, an Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz, and 1 gig of ram.

Do you have an example to show?

Nvm, I'm an idiot - apparently red and blue lights don't show up very well on red and blue surfaces.
But I did find that flickerlights still flicker when you have freeze mode on - is that a glitch or an intended feature?

I thought freeze mode only froze things?

Precisely. If all map thinkers were stopped the player couldn't operate doors and such as well.
Freeze mode is more a hack than anything else. It has severe side effects.

And that hack is available in skulltag as a powerup. Gross!

Most of Skulltag's powerup are rather questionable.
