I just upgraded to p5js v1.1.9 July 22, 2020.  
I had shading before but now I don’t.

settings:  
lights();  
ambientLight(80,80,80);  
pointLight(0,0,0, 96,48,42);

What do I need to change?

Hey there,

It’s hard to tell without a complete example. If you post your sketch at [https://editor.p5js.org](https://editor.p5js.org) (or elsewhere), we may be able to figure it out together.

Hello,

Take a look at the references for this:

> **[reference | p5.js](https://p5js.org/reference/#/p5/pointLight)**
>
> p5.js a JS client-side library for creating graphic and interactive experiences, based on the core principles of Processing.

0, 0, 0 in RGB or HSB mode is black and will not add light.

I agree with @Sven

Please provide a simple example with more context.
