<<Some how I have lost one of my omni lights in Viewer, Left and Right. I know
it is there somewhere. But where?>>
Firstly press ALT+L then Right-click on the "zoom extents" icon in the bottom
right corner you should then see your lights and where they are. Just as a word
of advice; when you create the single light at the position of the camera use
Exclude to remove all other objects from it and likewise exclude the "glow"
object from all othe other lights. You only want to have the single light at
the camera illuminating the glow object otherwise you are going to have "weird"
looking glow.
To position the light at the exact position of the camera, go to the Keyframer
and use KeyInfo to obtain the exact position of the light at Key #1 then copy
these coordinates into the position for the light. The light will then be at
the same position as the camera. Then link the light to the camera so when the
camera moves the light goes alone with it.
<<Saw the light in the middle of the globe but 3DS says NO LIGHT THERE!.>>
Check that you have selected the right "type" of light before you select it.
