Aaron2004 Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Hey, I'm working on a top view 3D floor plan and am trying out lots of diffenent lighting scenarios. I have been lighting everything with lights...with no environemnt lighting at all. The ceiling is not visible to the Camera. I want to try one where it's almost all enviroment lighting...but can't figure out how to exclude the ceiling so that the inside is illuminated as well. Thanks!

Fran Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Is cast shadows enabled in max object properties? Uncheck that. I think that's what you mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron2004 Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 Well...yeah...but then my direct light (sun) ignores it. It's all good though, I think...I used a VRAY dome light. That seems to by distributing light pretty evenly. Thanks! Aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy L Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 You could do what fran said and then put a filter on the sunlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron2004 Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 Well, is the Dome light the same thing as environment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
