Hi folks,
I need to exclude an effect that is not associated with an object. Is there a trick to this? An exclusion rectangle in IS3 will exclude a light that is attached to an object, but it will not exclude an effect not so attached.
I don’t see a likely exclude candidate in SBuilder X either. I have the GUIDs of the problem effects if that's a help.
Here's the specific problem. For a number of Holger's marine lights for PNW, the effects are assigned independent of the model so that one model can be used for a number of different lights with different periods, 1 sec, 2 sec, 4 sec etc. I need to exclude some of these lights and replace them with the same but higher off the water. Because the light is up on a platform, the problem light shines through underneath my hopefully accurate model.
Thanks much,
Larry
