Torley, thanks for the quick reply to this thread. However, I was actually referring to the shading model SL's lighting in general uses, not the way local lighting is calculated. If you take a look at my original post on the subject, you'll see what I'm getting at. Can we expect to see such "brighter-than-texture-values" effects at some point in the foreseeable future?

O gosh, I'm SO sorry for the misunderstanding, Beat! Those are NICE visual examples in your original thread. Please let me check once more...

We have in the works a more advanced materials system that will give users control over specular properties (i.e. allow a material to reflect light other than its base color, so a red texture could appear white when close to a white light). I hope to have it out some time this summer, but no promises, we have a lot on the schedule right now.
