hi,
the problem i have is that i could not find out how to change values of the lights in the rig  for my night scene.
i just cant select them like lights i put in the scene by myself
the other thing is that i would like to use MRsun and MRsky as mentioned by simfoxs tutorial but how do i change the lights in the rig?
i think it have something to do with their connection to that camera handle box but i couldnt find out how to connect/disconnect them.

hope someone can help me with that

thanks

The lightrigs are simply Max scenes that are xrefed (externally referenced).  You need to open them in Max and alter the values accordingly.  Remember that if you ungroup them, you must regroup them again with the name "Lighting Rig"
The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it
