thats not that big of a problem - theyre there, but they dont cast light so just ignore them. now what annoys the hell out of me, is when i load a light set that has targetted spotlights (ie: any of syyd's lights, among other vendors). it loads fine, and targets the spotlights at the character's head. however, if i change my mind and want to load a DIFFERENT light set, say one of the poser defaults or any other standard light set, then it totally screws it up because all of the lights are now 'pointing at' the character, and with omni lights this tends to make them render all black. this drives me nuts. so before i use any spotlight sets like the ones with syyds adam, i have to save the document, then if i later change my mind, and want to load a different type of light set, i can reload the document from my save. the only alternative is to go to every single light and click 'point at - none'. this can be time-consuming :)
