I would, however my employer's firewall is preventing me from going to that forum. Not sure why but it is. Can you possibly provide a link to this discussion in that forum for me. I'm pretty much desperate at this point. Pathetic, I know, but as you can see from the model, I'm pretty committed at this point to finding a solution to this challenge.

So I've attached the model and a rendering. I am trying to show the individual lights within the components, however i am getting too much bleed and too much intensity. The desired lighting should be more direct to each beam and as well as with in the structure. What it should look like is a LED shining up the arm and because it is an LED it will die off by the end, I also used probably 1000+ OMNI lights and it is really inconvenient when making multiple renderings. Any one please help. I've also attached the PDF's from the boss of what he is looking for. Basically each arm has three different lights, on on the arm, one on the bottom of the support and one between the supports. Then there is a light source at the very top shining down, and then there are light sources on the ground shining UP. I need help, AHHH

Thanks

NateThis is the model!!!
