Guys all this talk about new prop-based lighting in P9/PP12, how ambient (glow) should not be done, and how some vendors are perhaps understandably not familiar with it - it's wrong. It is NOT NEW. It's been there since P8/PP10. 

It's how IDL has worked for 2 years now. It's what I showed in my freebie scene, "Poser 8 Soft Studio Lighting with IDL" - posted

NOTHING HAS CHANGED other than a bunch of people started paying attention after I showed amazing new skin shaders that work without lights.

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)
