Maya - MR Light linking not working with transparency
I've got a glass cylinder with a metal wall behind it and need to use a light to light the metal wall but not the glass cylinder. The glass has a Mia material with the light linked as exclusive. With no transparency on the glass it is not illuminated by the light which is what I want, but as soon as I turn up the… -
Light + Portal Blueprint Question
Anyone know how you could make a blueprint where wherever a point light shines, a portal is created on the floor/wall/etc. What I am trying to achieve is: a light source that whatever it touches becomes a portal. (But only within the light attenuation/cone of light) When out of the attenuation/cone of light the the… -
workplace lighting
Strangely, the majority of my studio prefers our lights on. Florescent lights... We also have huge windows that let a ton of light in. My eyeballs are bleeding! Any suggestions? I'm considering wearing a sombrero to shield the light. -
Strange Light Bleeding Issue
Hey guys. Working on a new environment and I'm just testing out lighting atm. However, I've run into a weird lighting issue. As you can see in the following screenshots, light is bleeding through in very strange locations. I'm getting lighting leaking through the exterior walls, and it seems to be bouncing incorrectly. The… -
Light Environment Shadows
I am having all kinds of headaches getting the lighting / shadowing on dynamic objects to be decent in UDK. If I use any flavor of Directional light, I get weird "cross hatchy" shadows with artifacts popping up at certain angles.

Re: Dynamic Lighting Tutorials?
UDK is bad at this. What type of dynamic lighting you want?I mean you want sunlight?Or just dynamically changing shadows for a not moving lamp? Dynamic lighting is just really needed when you have moving light source or a lot of movable meshes.Its easy to set up by the way.You place your light source or light sources, hit… -
Maya mental ray ao that only shows up in ambient light?
Is this possible in maya, I'd like my ao shader to only show up in the ambient light's contribution, ie you shouldn't really ever see ao where the directional light is hitting but rather just in its shadows, multiplying it on top of the directional light looks kind of gross and muddy to me. Ideally I'd like to avoid using… -
Baked directional light - much worse quality than the realtime one
Hi, i'm experimenting with Unity's directional lights and there is one thing i cannot understand... I have a simple scene with one static object and one directional light. If i set the directional's light 'Baking' parameter to realtime, the quality of light is very good: However if i turn this to a baked light the quality…
