I turned the big light off ... surprised to find enough ambient light (see above)?? is it coming of the flame laterns? and then i started to add an alpha map to give some texture to the flame shapes I use a sponge it sort of looks like closes flames ... then I wished carrara had search functions like how to find all the shapes with the same name and select them could have saved some time opening each flame and resetting it to new specs ... then ! low and behold i found I had attempted to light up the flames using bulbs so i found the bulbs were embedded in the staff and not the flame ... I shifted the up and adjusted the brightness to see what happens ..... and the results from turning on one flame are seen in the uppermost image
