Is there a way to have a VVC be affected by enviromental light?

I'm trying to avoid using up animation slots unnecessarily. So, is there a way/setting to have a VVC bam be affected by enviromental lighting (day/night, weather, light spots) the same as a creature bam would? I've tryed differend flags, 'Not light source' being the most promising one, but so far none of them worked.
