Hi, Made the SSS render with C5Pro Demo-which prompted me to buy C5 pro! Long time Renderosity member (1998?) new C5 user. I bought it for its superior Poser friendliness- fun program! One question. Lights have no effect in OpenGL preview? I'm used to using OpenGL to get an approximation of light setup. But I don't see any lighting effect on the OpenGL preview. Am I missing something? Cheers, Eric

Open the interactive renderer settings panel, button looks like an up arrow with a circle around it. Select "scene lights".

I did the same thing. I couldn't pass up the deal for C5Pro and Hex after playing with the demos for a couple of weeks. Good question and answer. I don't have to post for that one.

It's a great program, but to get most out of it, I still have to learn a lot. But it's fun...
