I'm using the XSI EXP version. I'm going through the 3dtutorial series on materials and lighting.


I'm trying to add a spot light that will be used for GI lighting. When I use Get->Light->Spot, the light that is created is a point light. Changing the light type to Spot does not add the spot root and interest which is undesireable.


I've never seen this before, and a search of here and XSIbase didn't turn up much. I looked for a preferences file to delete, but didn't find much that looked promising.


Suggestions?


Thanks,


Eliot
