Subject: RayTracing problem in P5...

I've been using P5 for a while, and have rare problems, but I ran into a frustrating one tonight. While playing with the lighting in a project I'm working on, any raytraced lights stopped rendering. If I set the lights to depth map, they render fine, if I change it to ray trace, they don't render. In my render settings, I do have ray trace shadows clicked. I have tried deleting all of the lights and starting over on several occasions. I've tried several different light sets. I've saved the work, left Poser, come back, and the problem is still there. I even restarted the computer without any improvement. I wonder if during the loading of some light set, I ended up screwing up everything... I can delete all of the lights, but is it possible that there is another setting that I'm overlooking in fixing? Thanks for any thoughts!

Ok - Problem solved - as usual, it's operator error! I didn't realize that the prop I had in place (the room) has a ceiling! My lights were positioned above it. Oh well, fixed now.
