[comp.sys.amiga.graphics] Spotlights in SCULPT don't work.

I've tried to create spotlights in a SCULPT scene by placing a lamp inside
an open pyramid (an open cone would do just as well.)  SCULPT doesn't like
this since it exposes for the brightest faces (which are the ones inside the
spotlights) and everything else comes out black.  Even manual exposures of
5000 don't help much, and I've tried altering the brightnesses of the lamps
to no avail (I know - they're relative brightnesses.)

So, does anybody know how to get a spotlight in SCULPT to work?  Or is there
a way to get the effect of a spotlight without making your images far too
dark?
