Yeah... it seems like Gile[s], while not as picky in requiring the user to choose the right settings, does require a different mindset...
Gile[s] is not a "place the lights and away you go" sort of affair...
... it seems as if the user needs to be able to 'see' the results that he/she is looking for ahead of time, and know (or learn) enough to be able to pre set the scene elements accordingly before starting the lightmapping run...
... that's where I was having my problems. Now that the concept is a lil better understood, things are starting to look better.
With a lil more practice, I'll be ready to go up against Filax's Egypt demo :)
Anyway, lemme go ahead and get a license before Fredborg starts raising the price any :)
It looks like this Gile[s] thing is not gonna let me get any rest until I can do something worth looking at with it...
Thanks Again Fred, and everyone for the help...
