Lighting issue ever addressed?

Hi Mike,

> but seriously... how hard would it be to attach the light to the camera?

It is actually already attached to the camera - the light always follows the camera and is positioned by default to come from an angle kind of above and to the left of the camera.

If you would like to position the light so that it is going straight forward along the exact same direction as the camera and not slanted, that is possible by using this keyboard shortcut:
code:
script:var dir = moi.view.lightDirection; if ( dir.x == 1 && dir.y == 1 && dir.z == -1 ) { dir.set(0,1,0); } else { dir.set(1,1,-1); } moi.view.lightDirection = dir;


Assign a shortcut key to that script and then when you push that key, it will toggle between the default "above,left" direction and the totally straight forward direction.

The "straight forward" lighting tends to be a somewhat harsher feel for lighting, that's why it is not the default, but you can set it up like that if you want.
