Can anyone point me in the right direction. I'm trying to get some luminance passes up and running with VOPs. For some reason I'm getting different results when I have 1 light enabled vs. both lights enabled.
When only 1 light is enabled my deep pass looks fine, however, when both are enabled there seems to be a harsh cut-off in the shading contribution to that area.
Any ideas?

maybe this example helps to track down the issue:

this is not a science fair.

That's cool .. but a little more elaborate than what I was looking for. I guess my question is a little more basic than that.
so, question is .. why does the number of lights active change the result of a single light export in an illuminance loop?
Here I'm simply feeding in the lighting model, and exporting that as the variable. What am I missing?

The variable you export to needs to be set inside the illuminance loop which is why in Peter's example you have a fairly complex VOP network.
Instead of using the Lighting Model VOP you'll need to put together the illuminance model yourself. (Which is what Peter did.)
