Lighting setup for Auditorium

[azman_821009]

Hi guys,

Need some help from you..I'm still weak to setup lighting for interior. How to put light effects on the spotlight in Kray? Should I put the light to each spotlight objects? Anyway forget about modeling & texturing because it still in progress.

Thanks.

There are a lot of small lights here. I suggest to put IES or spot light to every second or third for good effect.

OK, I've found the topic about IES in kray but it still not very clear. What is IES and how to use it?

Spotlight to every second or third?

Can I use a Light Portal?

How to use IES light for lighting effects?

[jure]

It's as simple as selecting IES Light type and loading ies file. Check LW user manual.

Thanks Jure.

Finally found it but I just want to ask how to use it. In LW manual said used Photometric for IES? I tried use IES in Photometric & the rendering took a bit longer that I expected.

Yes rendering can take longer, especialy when using a lot of IES lights. IES is more complex to compute for the shadows so it takes more time.
