Is it possible to use vertex-based diffuse lighting (an FVF using D3DFVF_DIFFUSE) while lighting is enabled? I've played around with several examples and settings, but no matter what I do, I can't get it to work. The systems don't seem compatible, but I'd like to know for sure before I abandon vertex-based lighting. Thanks!

D3DRS_LIGHTING, true (obviously)
D3DRS_COLORVERTEX, true (MAY use vertex colors)
D3DRS_DIFFUSEMATERIALCOLORSOURCE, D3DMCS_COLOR1 (use diffuse vertex color)

There are also ambient, emissive, and specular material sources. They can be material, color1(vertex diffuse), or color2(vertex specular)
