Howdy All, What am I missing in applying the SoftEdge Lite texture? I read the lite.txt file, and am unsure how to apply the effect to a light? Also, where is the latest "UnZipping" utiity for the addendums Mike uploaded here? TIA, Jan Otherwise immensely enjoying 3.0! (Amiga)

You need IM3FIX.LHA not the zipped file (the zipped file is for the MS-DOS version of Imagine 3.0). If you don't have LHARC, you'll find it here in the Amiga forums on CIS. Jim R. Ollick Using AP from Bergenfield, NJ

Hi Jim, Got your msg re: IM3FIX.lha. Not quite sure what it was supposed to have to do with understanding how to apply a soft edge effect to an Imagine lightsource? I did dl it and run it. The Amiga version, and I suppose it worked. I wasn't yet running in to the non-reflecting ground problem, so haven't noticed anything different yet. I still don't know how to apply the "Softedge.itx" effect. TIA, Jan

Hmmm… I guess I replyed to the wrong person. Sorry. I havn't had a chance to play with 3.0 much. I have been reading the questions posted here and saving the answers in hopes of learning how to do things without having to read the manual all the way through, which I may have to do someday.

Jim, Don't feel bad about replying to the wrong person. After reading your repy, I dutifully dl'd the file, un lharc'd it, read the readme file, placed it in **IMAGEMASTERs** directory, ran it, then was confused when it couldn't find Imf.fp. Undaunted, because after all, I'm a sophisticated, long time Amigoid, I renamed IMAGEMASTER to Imf.fp(!) I eventually realized what the hell was going on, and after laughing out loud at myself, I dealt with the patch in IMAGINE's directory successfully! It was a good, humbling experience, thanx for the hearty chuckle! Jan
