Light selected objects only

melviso

Is there a way to assign a light to only illuminate a group of objects only where you can add and remove from the group of objects that can be lit by that particular light in ue4?

Obscura

Yes. Its lighting channels, but there is only 3 channels to use.

Thanks for the info.  Found out it does not work with baked lighting though.

@Obscura Is there a way to get Screen capture cube to render post process volume and volumertic lighting? The cube render target isn't displaying them in the 360 image.

Obscura

As far as I remember, you can't.

@Obscura I am wondering if this might work with RTX? I am guessing you use ansel plugin instead or is there a better technique you are using now for 360 images and videos as well.

Obscura

Enabling rtx doesn't change how the cubemaps work. I don't know whats the best way currently, but ansel or one of the 360 plugins should work. I know that the stereo rendering one applies post process too, but it renders much slower. The image quality is also lower depending on the settings. Because what it makes isn't a true panorama but one stitched together from smaller non pano images.

Ok. Thanks.
