Hi Sven,
Hmm. I do get a light spot on the plane that I put beneath the light_source.
Obviously it has to be within range of the 'fade' specified, so anything
more than a couple of POV-Ray units away isn't going to get much light, but
that would be the case with or without the 'looks_like' clause, so I'm
assuming that's not your problem.
Just a thought;- did you check the release notes for the 3.7 Beta to make
sure the various features that you're using are fully implemented? As well
as the 'looks_like' clause I'd recommend checking for any surface features
or media features that you're using that might be incomplete in that Beta
test version.
Regards,
Chris B.
