Jaqui, Thank you for your quick response. I have tried altering the intensities, to no avail. I have even tried altering some of the settings for the spots, but none - so far - have "realistically" rendered the lighting. I understand that I will need more spots for the candles, as I only have one per wall to "emulate" the light coming from the walls and not the individual candles. I figure once I get the per wall settings straight, the four candles would be easier. Poser 4, at least with the Pro Pack, only has Infinite or Spot lights: * Infinite emulates sunlight, in that it is parallel light to the scene and lights all charatcters/props the same. * Spots allow you to direct the light from a given point outward. I will most likely try Vue sooner or later, but I would like to see if I can stick with Poser at the moment. My brain only has a limited capability to grasp any number of things at once. ;0) Thanks again! I do appreciate it.
