Light Linking and MPxLocator objects 2003-12-04 - By Berj Bannayan
Back
Hi,
I've built a node that's derived from MPxLocator. I do this since I need to
override the draw() method. The trouble comes in when I try to link a light
to this node... I can't. This node is essentially a place-holder for a bunch
of RIB data to be output to a renderman renderer, the draw() draws this data
in the viewport but I also want to be able to render it (using Liquid).
Everything works except light linking.
So the question is: Is there a way to fool the light linker into thinking this
node isn't a locator?
Thanks for any assistance,
Berj
