Feature request: Lightmaps

Feature request: Lightmaps

Hey, I've been using the Cheetah3D demo for a while now (am planning on buying it, though!), and it's a GREAT program. One thing that I would really like in the renderer is lightmap support. Let me explain.

A lightmap is kind of like a bump map. It is an image that, like a bumpmap, is black where no light should be created, and then, where light should be made, corresponding to the texture, there is the color of the light.

I know this might be a tough feature, and it's just one small thing I'd like to be put it. I can't say how much I love your program, good job!
 
Hi,
do want to create lightmaps with Cheetah3D (backing in radiosity) or do you just want to use lightmaps? Becausing creating lightmaps is much more difficult than just using them.

Thanks that you like Cheetah3D.:)

By,
Martin
