This don't run with moi3d v.3? I get only a small blue-strip with a X (for closing this wind Lighting Options Window) and nothing more happens ...

It seems to be working fine here on V3 (Using PC)

So I'm assuming that Dinos' file: "LightingOptions.htm" resides inside of V3's "ui" folder?

To call up the dialog from the Shortcut Keys list: code:
script: /* Opens Lighting Options Dialog */ moi.ui.createDialog( 'moi://ui/LightingOptions.htm' );

Hi Lordfox

I installed the lighting options last night in my new computer, and it did not work either, until I remembered the following:

Besides putting the lighting options htm file in the ui folder, it is necessary, one time only, in Moi version 3 screen, to select
options, then view, then Lighting options button.

tried today again - it dosn't run :( lighting options not found

snapshot also not run

but the other things are ok - costum ui


edit: after 8 months I can run it - I did delete the .DS-store file in the ui - because I copied there the htm and the second file

Added a simple configuration for basic Solid shading with no specular or shadows - great for graphics tracing of 3-D type and simple objects.

metallicLighting is shown as true in the script, and false in the picture. (This metallic setting does not seem to make any visual difference.)

For selection with CustomUI, I added the "Solid" lighting version to the custom LightingOptions.htm under ui.
It was necessary under MoI options, View, Lighting options, to update "Solid" selection.

Hi,

Could someone please tell me in which system Folder the
personal favorites of lighting presets are stored ?

Hi Tom,

all the lighting presets are stored in moi.ini, including any personal favorites that you created.
That is located in <user>/Library/Application Support/Moi on a Mac. Not sure of the exact path for Windows.

For Windows, path is something like:
c:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Moi

You will have to select one of the User subdirectories to figure out the User name in <user>.
It should be the User subdirectory which contains AppData :-)

For windows, click the start button and type

%APPDATA%

This opens that folder, then find folder "moi"

FYI: I keep my ini file in MoI's root installation folder. It will look there first, and keeps it more handy for the guy who wants it more often...

Michael also put a button for "edit ini" in the options panel, which finds and opens it for you. Havent tested that with the new beta yet though
