Hello<br>
<br>
I had the same problem a time ago. My problem was to specify all the surfaces before introducing the physics lists. I do not know if it is your problem but you can try<br>
<br>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div>I don't know about opitical simulations and surface definitions... but I have observed the same change in behavior for the definition of sources. See e.g. </div>

<div>I never understood this change in behavior, just accepted it...</div>

<br>
The aim of my fix is to make scintillation working for the combination<br>
"GATEv9.0 (with my patch) + Geant4.10.06.p02 "<br>
<br>
Can you test it, if you have time ?<br>
