Hello,

We would like to be able to add view-independent lighting to the
textures in a static pf-scene.

A general solution could:

1. load model(s) into a performer scene.
2. read a file containing light positions and parameters.
3. produce a new model, in which all polygons are textured with a new
set of textures, created by modulating original textures with light
contributions.
4. save scene as a pfb.

Does anyone know of any commercial tool (or plug-in) that does this,
either wihin Performer or within a 3d-modelling environment
(eg: Multigen, SoftImage or 3D-StudioMax) ??

Thanks very much,

Paolo
