If the new Full Bright Setting also came with LSL functions? and if it did where I can find info on them?

Its part of the primitive parameters, you would use llSetPrimitiveParams.
example:
llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_FULLBRIGHT, ALL_SIDES, TRUE]);

I apologize for the ignorance...but what is FULL_BRIGHT anyway? (I've read about it in the version update notes...and saw the addition to the WIKI on SetPrimitiveParams...but am not really sure exactly what it would do to my object/prim).

It makes a prim "glow" without actually emitting light in any surrounding areas.

Gotcha--light without lag would be good.


Here I go switchin' all my "light" to FULL_BRIGHT...

Thanks so much. I am still something of a scripting noob and was hoping to alter an existing off/day and on/night light script to use Full Bright instead of light. Maybe now I have a prayer of figuring it out. :)

Darkness, if you are trying to do a "off/day and on/night light" then I would reccommend that you do indeed use LIGHT. It will illuminate the area (which is what a light should do :) ) and only causes lag (specifically reduced client fps) for people who have enabled local lighting - and they generally do so becuase their systems can handle it.
