What's the best way to light the inside of a light source?

[MisterGravity]

So let's say there's a street lamp model or something you've created with brushes. You place the light facing down, but if you look up, the inside of the light source isn't lit up like it would be in reality. Short of having another light turned around and facing up into it, is it possible to say that this face, or this brush, absolutely, wholeheartedly is white and 100% bright, no matter how other lights might affect it?

Hmm. Says I don't have permission to download the file, and all there is is music playing over a video that I'm not really following.

sooner or later you have to write your own shaders

Oh I'm sure, but examples are always nice.

That's a good shader. Why don't you have permission if you own Leadwerks 3?

Just use the emissive shader on the lamp material.

I'm not sure, it just says:

 

Sorry, you don't have permission for that!

But this worked. Brilliant.
