Need Help in Lighting
Hello Everyone! I am doing my final project for my college and i need some advice in lighting this scene. This scene is a night time and is inside a ship. There is also a moonray shining on to the girl from the right. Any advice on how to balance the lamp light and moonray??? I am using Maya 2018 with Vray. -
Re: [WIP] Lighting and Shooting a fantasy town
Having more or less zero knowledge of the technical constraints of lighting something inside a game engine, I'm putting my concept artist hat for this critique. Please disregard what can't be done! You might want to look at photos of similar locations to get a baseline lighting you can twist into a different mood. This is… -
[WIP] Improving my lighting skills in UE5
Hi! Recently I decided to work inside of UE5 and play around with lumen. I mostly worked inside of UE4 before so it was good to look around what UE5 had to offer. I'm currently studying to get a better understanding of lighting. I build this scene with quixel megascans and the megascan tree package from the marketplace. I… -
How would you create this lighting technique? (controlling light with geo intersection)
Hi, I am trying to reproduce this lighting technique which I theoretically know how it's done, but I have no idea how to execute it. Right now I am using Maya, but I would also like to know if this is possible in Unity (which I have minimal experience with). In short the shading is not controlled with physical lights but… -
Maya Hardware Lighting issue
Anyone have an idea about whats going on here. Im in hardware view and I threw a spot light in my scene. Random peices of geometry seem to be getting the light source...but not all surfaces. The main peices that arent are the wall of the right building and the ground. IT seems to happen to large pieces of geomtry thats the… -
Re: "The Maestros" Art Render Test Scene: Lighting and Set up help
I for one am no lighting expert, and these are just a few suggestions you may want to try. I would go with point lights with the appropriate color for the crystals. This way you will get a nice spread of colored light on all surfaces surrounding the crystals. Are you going with a night scene here? If so add some blueish… -
Re: Lighting Portfolio Feedback
To add to the already mentioned critiques, looking at the Sun Temple work, I think there's some inconsistency in the light directions and colors. The day time lighting should be brighter and there should be more direct sunlight hitting the foreground statue on the right (depending on sun direction). I say this because the… -
.Fbx import in UDK : lighting issues, tangents and binormals ?
Hi guys ! First time posting here but I've been lurking a long time, finding many solutions and tutorials as well as beautiful work, so I can eventually say : thank you Polycounters ! :D This time I'm bringing with me this issue concerning Fbx import into UDK, using a zbrush/3dsMax/XNormal pipeline. This is somehow related… -
Re: Experience with per pixel lighting?
Just wondering here, what's with the "tweak a spec map on a per light basis"? Does this mean you are required to alter a spec map depending on what lighting situation the texture is in? I assume you're not talking about altering the actual specular map image itself, more just values associated with it? Surely you can just… -
Re: Weird Lighting issues in max?
Using omni lights might seem like a good idea because its a big ball of light, but you can get yourself in trouble quickly. They also can take a lot longer to render because they shoot rays of light out all over the place, even out into the void which turns out to be a waste of time. Direct and spot lights shoot the same…
