Seems Ive catched a glimpse of some tute mentioning a form of radiosity / GI is back in Blender. Was it an error or is it available again? Can only find the old 2.4x tutes. Btw, pity these inflated promises didnt turn true and 2.6x is even less documented than the prev releases instead of being the 1st one with full coverage (as said by the Foundation... long ago)!

The book Blender Noob to Pro also covers fake GI and Radiosty. Im not certain these will get you where you want to be.

Google is a wonderful thing ;)

Thx. Works quite seamlessly @ least in a very basic setting. I remember the old GI in 2.4x and it was sooo painful! Very glad don`t have to fake GI. I prefer to model & animate and let the algorhythms do the GI part.

I know this wonderful thing. Even wrote about this in my 1st post :P
