I'm a new user. Only been learning 3d art 3d art since Nov 2015. I want to simulate a black light in a scene and realistic reflections of a black light on other surfaces in the scene. I've been rendering with 3delight because I usually have better luck than with the other engines but I'm not sure if there is a more efficent choice. Also I'm not sure if this next info can help someone help me but it couldn't hurt. My limits are win 7 64 bit ultimate on a dell inspiron. I'm not sure about graphics card or anything. Someone let me know if this is an impossible idea or if it can be done and if anyone has ever attempted it before -successes and fails are encouraged to chime in.

Yes, it's a bunch of presets and I'm generally one of the first ones to chime in on how to 'roll your own'...but in this case, it's quite a bit of advanced tweaking and all the hard work has been done with this set.
