Shadows/Lighting on plants.
So I'm now struggling a little to get my shadows and lighting to work well. It seems that when I have accepts dominantDirectional shadows ticked on my speedtree factory actors terrain properties, the plant is just all shadowed out if it is not receiving direct light. Consequently, when I un-tick this it seems that the… -
[#cinema4d #ProRender ] How to use Light portals?
Hello everyone. How to use light portals in ProRender? I created a plane, added a compositing tag to it and then I turned on the light portal checkbox. But the light portal doesn't work at all. I tried to disable my portal and compare results. And nothing has been changed. And yes, normals are faced to my interior. -
weird lighting problem in UDK
Hey guys, I'm getting this really weird problem when I build my lighting in my scene. After I build my lighting my tiled floor gets this weird black spots on it. It's different on each instance of the mesh. I didn't have this problem until after I added in those dirt piles around the pillar. I also added two more lights,… -
Re: Experimenting with RTX lighting ??
Ok so there are a couple of things: - Ray tracing in realtime uses heavy denoising on some passes, because otherwise it would require hundreds of samples which would cause 1 fps or less instantly. Global illumination is the most critical one here. Cast shadows only needs a lot of samples when the penumbra is large, and… -
Re: Textures and hand painting and lighting questions

Re: I Need Pointers on Form, Lighting and Stuff

But if we abstract the indirect and atmospheric light, by making black 50% transparent, it'll already give a good idea of how some nice contrast… -
Lights Will Not Work In Viewport or Render [3ds Max 2013]
Scene lights are on, Default lights are off, and yet, everything is dark. That light is pointing directing and obnoxiously at my scene and nothing is being lit. What's a girl to do? Please and Thank You -
Re: Sun Light / Shafts
straight forward question ... I like it :P try adding a dominant directional light to your scene and aiming it as though the sun is casting the light. all you should have to do after that is click the "render light shafts" check box under its properties. As long as your sun does not move you should be good to go. at a… -
Re: Lightmapping + dynamic lights
Im not sure I understand what you mean, heres a screenshot of what Im doing. Im trying to add vertex(not important) point lights eg explosion effects lights to an already lightmapped scene. As you can see in the screenshot the light is not effecting any of the nearby surfaces. I know it will look a little wierd if shadows… -
