Hey, I might sound like a complete newbie, but why.. when i draw my primitive in wireframe, my D3DLIGHT8 shows up on it, but when i have a texture mapped on my primitive, the light doesn''t show up, the primitive is completely lit, without using the light that i made. Cheers

Unfortunately I''m unfamiliar with DirectX 8''s light system, but I think the general oppinion is not to use it at all except for extremely small applications or apps with very few lights.

I would also like an answer, though, in case I end up using lights in the future.

Sorry I couldn''t have been more help.
