Hello! I started messing around with the new ART renderer in max 2017. I noticed by default - looks like there's some sort of "sun" type light coming in. Does anybody know how to control this?(most of my experience is with lighting is in Maxwell renderer) Here is a test render I did. Simple primitives with a physical…
