    Okay, so I set my settings for the Advance Lighting effect to make a bolt of lighting. I have worked on this project a while with no issues and have rendered it in the render queue with no issues.
    Now after render it becomes a spec or a tangle ball of electricity instead of the bolt. If I go to the settings and play with the conductivity stat then press command z to undo, it returns to a lighting bolt until I render it again. What’s the deal?

    I am using CS3 Pro with a Mac OSX with Intel

    Thanks for your help

    Thanks for the club membership!

    I don’t have the setting from the earlier version. What I ended up doing was setting up the lighting they way I wanted, then tweaked a different layer at a differnet part then rended it. It worked for some dumb reason. It rendered the lighting they way I wanted.

    I am glad I am not the only one with this issue. Hi, my name is Laurie and I have issues with Advance Lighting.
