I'm relatively new to Performer so I never learned Performer 1.2. I am
currently upgrading old Performer 1.2 code to Performer 2.0 code. My
question is this:

Are there any major differences with lighting effects from 1.2 to 2.0 ??

My problem is I have ported the code from 1.2 to 2.0, but the sides of my
buildings (which have textures) are now black like the top of the building
(which does not have a texture). The texture is a grey color. I enabled a
infinite light for the scene using

pLight = pfNewLSource();
pfAddChild( scenenode, pLight );

Any new knowledge on lighting is appreciated. Thanks
