Quote - Are you sure you are selecting a point light?  Those features exist with spot lights.  Point lighting emit a 360 degree illuminations while you can control spot lighting spread, distance and direction.

Yep. Actually, I can switch the light between all four types and get lampFlaps and lampBase for each.

Look on the Light Properties tab, the tab where you choose what kind of light it is. At the bottom my P8 says "Attenuation Constant". Click on the word constant - you get a menu with choices including Constant, Inverse Linear, and Inverse Square. Choose Inverse Square for the same effect as the ISF shader.

Thanks for that. Yep, I get the control on mine, although it's not obviously a selection since the currently selected option is just text (same as the label) rather than an obvious selection box - doesn't even highlight or change at all when hovered over. Not the best interface option...

Would be nice to have a manual that described all these things...
