Hello,

One thing that I've always wanted to do but which I've never been able to work out is how to make a lampshade. As most household lamps have these it would be nice to be able to make a lamp which doesn't have a bare bulb showing.

To do this I'd need a brush that lets light pass straight through it and will render at a constant brightness as though it's lit up from the inside. Perhaps it's possible to do this with func_brush or func_illusionary, but so far I havn't been able to work it out and all the different render settings just confuse me.

Ideas anyone ?
 
Theres a lampshade model in props/C17...not sure if it works though, might be worth a try.
