alice-teacher Alice 3.2 lighting question

[Leonel Morales]

Hi,

The light in Alice 3 seems to come from a certain fixed angle and
there is no way to move the light source or point it in a different
angle.

Moving the objects along with the camera seems to be the only solution.

In the attached a3p file there is only a billboard and a text, both of
them should be white but due to angle of light they look gray.

I found that setting their vehicles to the camera and turning it
forward 0.083 is the best angle to make them look white, or the color
you choose.

The only solution seems then to turn all objects with the camera 0.083
forward, or the angle of your choice for the shading you need.

Regards,

Leonel
