Advanced Lighting Panel (Scanline Renderer)

The Advanced Lighting rollout lets you select one of the advanced lighting options that accompany the default scanline renderer: either the Light Tracer or Radiosity.

The Light Tracer provides soft-edged shadows and color bleeding for brightly-lit scenes such as outdoor scenes. Radiosity provides physically accurate modeling of the light in a scene.
