- Maybe you have too many lights in your scene.
- DirectX and OpenGL only support a limited number of lights.

hi, thanks ED!!
I actually just put one light in my scene, it doesn't work at all, I delete it and make another~ same result!

I am using xsi4.2, displaying normal and color map in openGL mode, with radeon card!

any hits!!
