[Papervision3D] Simulating light

[Ralph Hauwert]

Roland,

Just to be sure we are on the same page : your intention is to bend
the geometry a plane with a transparent light on it ? If so, I must
say it's a creative solution indeed..but I have my doubts about it
working, it's a highly unconventional way of lighting.

Ralph.
