Dear List.

I am in search of free or relatively cheap lighting simulation  
software. Something that offers libraries for various kinds of  
lighting fixtures/lights/projections.

I have been using the TurboSketch plugin for Sketchup Pro. It isn't  
bad, but it is a bit limited regarding type and output of lighting.  
And converting lumens to candelas to match its parameters isn't ideal.

The photo-renderer in programs like AutoCAD or Vectorworks do this,  
and I had WYSIWYG recommended to me, but they are all quite out of my  
price range.

Thoughts are welcome and appreciated.

Regards.

Daniel
