Quote:I'm not sure. The "problem" comes only if you intend to use an ambient light to fill the environment with some basic color.
But, since "Emissive Filter" will represent the ambient color in the .pov file, maybe we would consider to calculate the average of the color for all ambient light that we can have added to wings scene. What do [all] you think about this?
That makes some sense to me. Since I haven't used Pov-Ray enough to know all the implications of such a change, I hope that someone with more Pov-Ray experience will give input...

Quote:If you do not add any light to your scene, then one or two parallel lights are added to the exported scene - in accord with that one you selected in the View menu option.
But, if you added any light - even if you turned all them off (hidden), then no lights are exported. (we can think this a bug?!)
I am using Pov-Ray 3.6 right now. I will see if updating fixes things. I have no lights added at all so maybe the parallel lights being exported don't work in Pov-Ray 3.6???
Since Wings PBR Render doesn't work well on older PC's/Video Cards I think Pov-Ray is the next best thing for very fast renders.
