@ETafter reading HSS comments I took a closer look at your Scene construction.
I made a few repairs and added some comments.
please have a look at it..
http://scenes.virtuastripper.net/ET-FractalGarden013c.zip That is Just the scene file with my notes and corrections in it.
If you Compare that to your scene file.
I think you will see where you left out some Node Closing Brackets
You left the Quad open, and that had an impact on the rest of the scene.
Missed a semi colon : on the clipSprite
That prevented the clipNameSprite from working.
and just some general positions and Z levels.
You should be able to add your lighting effects now.
It can get ***** if you forget to close just one node..
Because down in the scene, everything is affected by that open node..
