Hey Phil,

Is “Render Lighting Effect” grayed out so you can’t select it? You’ll want to make sure when you’re in the Channels palette that you select the RGB eyeball to make all the channels active again. Then deselect the bump channel eyeball. We don’t need it.

Then switch back to the layers palette and select the black layer. You’ll render the lighting effects on that layer. (It has to be an actual layer and not the background)

I’ve tried this 5 or 6 times but i don’t get the result like you say.
At the point when you use the “Render-Lightning Effect” my PC don’t allow me to select it.
I’ve selectet the ~Black Layer and create the BUMP Channel(which one should i select…)

You should post this on some of those tutorial sites. It’s way better than half the ones I’ve seen on there. Thanks for giving back.
