I'm looking for models of a simple fluorescent light and a wooden telephone pole with wires. anyone know of any? Also, does anyone have any ideas on how it might be possible to create the effect of a blacklight?

Hi There is a fluorescent strip light in the Bryce 4 presets and could you not use a negative light for a "blacklight"? As for a telephone pole with wires - I don't know of one that exists but the pole can't be too difficult and the wires could be either an imported object piped from a path or just a half torus( you could hide the joins with a bit of a transistor type thingie??) Hope this helps Psychomoose

Hi again there is a ceramic electrical insulator in the Bryce 4 presets to join the wire and the pole!

Imported object piped from a path? Pray tell what do you mean. Can you make your object the shape of a path in Bryce? That sounds very interesting. If so, how? Anvil.

Bonestructure. Avalon has a 3ds powerline model in misc. section. Twenty thousand polygons, three poles with wires between. Wish I would have remembered it in "Revelation". Render on. Anvil.

The object piped from a path has to be imported from something else like cinema 4D, but a greyscale image (from Photoshop etc.) of a curve could be imported and turned into a symmetrical latice but its not as accurate.
