svdl: I have tried the ChangeLightType.py as well as another that changes all lights to local. It seems that local lights act the exact same way that infinite ones do. With the python script you can move the light around but it still acts like infinite one(Place the light inside of a jack-o-lantern and the light source still comes from the outside). I would just like to be able to place a light inside an object(spotlite will work)and not have the light still show through the object. An example(since halloween is around the corner)would be the jack-o-lantern, place the light inside it and you would think that the only light outside the j-o-l would be coming from the face openings. However it seems that the light seeps out the top,bottom and sides, which takes away any chance of a good lighted jack-o-lantern effect.
