Gaffer is a plugin shader for LightWave 3D, which performs a similar job as a real gaffer; it is a tool for controlling lighting and shading. It changes the algorithm LightWave uses to determine the appearance of a lit surface. Gaffer's new model is not a minor change in the shading options of LightWave; it is a considerable extension. It adds new specular and diffuse shading options, per-surface light exclusion and boosting controls, area light shadows, bloom around bright reflections, and a new tool for compositing shadows into a background plate.
