Hey, what am I missing. I'm not getting a spec from my distant light. Sphere + default mantra srf, diffuse off, + distant light. No spec in the render.

I've confirmed this setup works fine in H14, H15 seems to be computing things differently. Anyone have a solution?

Thanks!!

Select your DistantLight15 and convert it's type to Grid. The specular square will show up in your render.

My guess is the distant light no longer offers specular content as of H15. Kind of weird though.
