  • How to brighten GI material

    Posted by Jay Ingles on December 16, 2011 at 9:57 pm

    I’ve lit a scene with GI and its almost there.

    I’ve used Cubes with a material that has a luminance of “100”/ White.

    How would i boost 1 materials intensity to have one light brighter?

    thanks.

    you can increase the brightness in Luminance higher than 100 just do it with the arrows (or type the number) rather than using the slider

    Thanks Brian. An obvious answer but i hadn’t noticed the changes when i tried in my scene.

    You could also go into the Illumination tab and boost just the GI strength / saturation values so your colour doesn’t get blown out, since you’re using white though you should be just fine.
