manssel Posted February 10, 2004 Author Share Posted February 10, 2004 Thanks Strat It's been very useful. I will try this generator. I recall a short tutorial I read months ago about how to fake it only with simple omnies and projectors but I forgot the web address. I was wondering whether there is a simple method like that using only a couple of lights to simulate them in a still with good results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dollus Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Use the link above to generate a map that you add in the projection slot for a light. Be sure to attenuate the light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
