kursad Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Hi I am building a custom material. I want my material to respond well to the gilights. I might even try to build custom light loop. I am wondering if someone can provide me some basic considerations for such cases. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
