Title: Daytime LIghting
Post by: garystan on September 17, 2014, 01:57:12 PM

           Hi everybody :

                                 I'm looking for that article about having the lights on in the daytime. I remember it being posted in the past.  (At the time, I should have made a hard copy of the article)  For example.........it's sunny outside......inside there are dim spots....rooms that might be in the shadows.....etc..............
                                                                                                              Thanks,
                                                                                                              garystan

Hi Gary,

I remember running into the same problem, and I believe I saw and used the article you mentioned. The question is, where?  ???

                  I tried looking through the articles about lighting, but didn't find anything.   I'll try looking again.   It's there........just have to find it.

I went through the Tips and Tricks section and found this post: http://forums.turbofloorplan.com/index.php/topic,584.0.html (http://forums.turbofloorplan.com/index.php/topic,584.0.html). Was this the article you remember?

One of the suggestions is setting the sky to overcast. Another idea is to do a double render (with and without sun) and then combine the images (you suggested that in fact).

                       Yup.......that's the one.   I'm going to make a hard copy of this entire article.
