Description
Tests the effects of NV097_SET_LIGHT_CONTROL (0x294) in conjunction with NV097_SET_SPECULAR_ENABLE.
A number of test meshes are rendered and lit with two lights:
1) A directional light coming from the left and pointing into the screen (direction is {1, 0, 1}).
2) An attenuated point light on the right at {1.5f, 1.f, -2.5f} with a max rannge of 4. and attenuation of {0.025f, 0.15f, 0.02f}.
Both lights have ambient {0.f, 0.f, 0.05f}, diffuse {0.25f, 0.f, 0.f}, specular {0.f, 0.2f, 0.4f}.
Meshes have the specular color of each vertex at {0.f, 0.4, 0.f, 0.25f}.
All colors are taken from the material (i.e., contributed by the lights). NV097_SET_MATERIAL_ALPHA is set to 0.4 and the scene ambient is a very dark grey at 0.031373.

Notes on use with the programmable pipeline:
While it is possible to enable lights when using a vertex shader, it appears that parts of the pipeline are not fully initialized, leading to non-deterministic color effects that change with each draw and often differ across cold boots of the hardware.
Leaving lighting enabled without enabling any lights via NV097_SET_LIGHT_ENABLE_MASK will cause all vertices to be black in color, but alpha will still come from the material when allowed by the light control and specular enable settings.
Disabling specular with lighting enabled will still disable the alpha application.
Enabling specular with lighting disabled will apply the material alpha and use the vertex shader output colors.

FF_0x000000

Tests behavior using the fixed function pipeline with SET_SPECULAR_ENABLED on. Separate specular is off, causing the green of the mesh specular to be retained. Localeye is off, using a simplified model for specular highlighting, causing artifacts for the point light on the cylinder mesh.

FF_0x000000NoSpec

Tests behavior using the fixed function pipeline with SET_SPECULAR_ENABLED off. Separate specular is ignored because SPECULAR_ENABLED is off, so the green of the mesh specular is not seen. Localeye is off, using a simplified model for specular highlighting, causing artifacts for the point light on the cylinder mesh.

FF_0x010000

Tests behavior using the fixed function pipeline with SET_SPECULAR_ENABLED on. Separate specular is off, causing the green of the mesh specular to be retained. Localeye is on, using a slower model for specular highlighting that results in more realistic behavior for the point light on the cylinder mesh.
