How can i use lightmaps with the software renderer?
I want to use a diffuse texture and a lightmap.

You can't...unless you can bake your lighting into the base textures itself in a preprocessing step. That's because the software renderer doesn't support multi texturing, i'm afraid.

Thanks for the quick answer.
Yes, i use Blender and can easily bake the lightmap into the diffuse texture with it. Thanks for the advice.
