volume emitters are quite different, and a lot more difficult :)

Great news!

Ps. Now when you get textured lights you instantly start talking about something new - volume lights. Come on... this isn't very fair against Ono :wink: 8)

It's handled as an additional texture option for meshlights.

At some point in the future I may do a big re-architect to make emitter materials, but not yet :)

very cool,
does this mean you could put a big sky (or whatever) background image on a plane and make it an emitter?

would that be so much differrent from a JPG-converted .exr?

-that's an other request, btw: can we use .exr for those emitters? :D

I can't seem to get those exr's to work. not sure if it is because I use sketchup to indigo or? but they always come out all stretched out looking. :?

seems you'd have more control this way.

Not sure if this would be useful.. most exrs are spherical or lat/long env maps
