underneath the 6 circles u'll see a dropper and next to it 01-default. next to that there should be a button saying standard. click on it and a menu will appear. click on raytrace and then click on ok.
the rest should be simple. but if u have any problems with it, just shout again!

informative!

its very detailed, but the full view image is a bit too big. (well, im a mac user, so it could be my browser. get a second opinion on that )

looks like you had fun though. even though i dont have the program, that was interesting to read.

besides, commenting shows love <333
