Did you know that P7 actually has a Global Illumination feature in the renderer?
They didn't publicize it. There is nothing in the user interface to turn it on. But you can turn it on from the Python interface. I read something about this in the Python forum here. One of our Python gurus found these undocumented functions that actually make it do GI.
I guess it doesn't work very well, or they would have made it visible. If it had a good version of GI, I'd want it, even if it needed all night to render.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
