  • block object from receiving light

    Posted by Paul Rijkaard on March 5, 2016 at 4:55 pm

    In my scene, a domestic interior, there are a couple of lights.

    The main light is invisible to the camera, but it appears in a mirror. Is it possible to prevent a light from effecting a specific object/material?

    There are other ambient lights, which I want to appear in the mirror

    thanks

    In the Light’s attributes menu, under “Project,” enter any objects that you want to exclude (or include).

    Also, right click on Mode in the Project window and select Show Help for more info. It describes how to enable or disable illumination, specularity, and shadows for any of your excluded or included objects.
