Jet Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 Couple of Questions Well using all of the tools that i was armed with over the weekend and earlier this week from the group, I did this interior, and the only light that I am using is a Daylight system set to skylight. If I uncheck exterior light then I get this result, If I check exterior light, then I get a totally black image, and it doesnt matter what exposure control I adjust, even putting brightness all the way up to 200 stil wont do the trick I am also getting a hideous bright white light in the room, I dont know what that is from, that is supposed to be a 6 oclock daylight well it was 103 degrees here today, but come on. Well if anybody can shed some light on the issue I would appreciate it. Oh yea, I modeled most of this scene in Max this time! Yippee hurray for me, Some of the hardcore stuff I had to do in AutoCAD. But comments are also welcome. Thanks again. Jet Here is the image Here are the settings I used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Ryan Rubio Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 wen using daylight, set the physical scale in exposure control to 90,000 or thereabouts.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Posted July 17, 2003 Author Share Posted July 17, 2003 When I put the sunlight source to 90000, I get a black picture, and the only thing that I can see is the highlights on raytrace materials, and the white in the self aluminated window materials, after that, i can raise the brightness value up to 200 and get no affect at all. Any Ideas on the Very Bright Spot on the right side wall. Also when I rotated the camera, i see very blothcy jagged edge shadows on the opposite wall.

renato Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 Check your bias of sunlight shadows, o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet Posted July 20, 2003 Author Share Posted July 20, 2003 The Glass material is a translucent shader with about 80 opacity and self illuminated. Jet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Posted July 20, 2003 Author Share Posted July 20, 2003 I cant email a copy of the file, the only thing that I could do would be to give descriptions of the settings, sorry, wish I could, I can see how that could be helpful. Jet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZepSOFD Posted July 21, 2003 Share Posted July 21, 2003 Jet, Hide the glass that is between the kitchen and all outside light sources then re-process the Rad.. Use these settings in the Exp. Con. as a starting point: Log. Bri. 40 Cont. 100 Mid. Tone 1 or .01 Phy. Scale 45,000 Rad. Sol.: I.Q. 80 R.I. 0 Filter 0 Mesh Den. 2'-4' Your Rad. processing should be pretty quick with these settings and when you render your scene it will probably be over exposed. You will need to adjust your brightness and contrast until you get the lighting level you are looking for. It looks like you are getting light leaks this is probably from either having the outside lights to bright or the vertices from the ceiling are not aligned to the vertices from the top of the wall. Try this and see how it looks, at this point don't look for lighting quality look for the light intensity. Once you get this close then worry about adding the glass back in. tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Posted July 21, 2003 Author Share Posted July 21, 2003 Thanks Z, I am going to try that. I kinda moved on to the next rooms, because I was spending too much time on it, But I will try that here shortly! Jet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
