There are bunch of candles. If I were really to go all out, I'd put a point light in for each flame. But I didn't want an hour-long render, so I used only 3 point lights. They are each 25% intensity, positioned above the candles around the center post. I also used the built-in falloff, so that the intensity decreases with distance. I set distance end = 250 inches.
The linear falloff built into Poser is not accurate, but good enough for this demo. If I was making a really good render, I'd use my inverse-square falloff light shader. They take a while to set up, so I skipped that for now.
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)
