  • OpenGL lights limit

    I am currently designing a set in C4D, and need to add in the stage lights, however am restricted to 20 under the OpenGL limit. Is there anyway to increase this further/get lights in other ways. I’m using spots which need to be fully manipulated (colour/angle) if anyone needs to know. Thanks in advance

    One option is to disable OpenGL in preferences, but of course you’ll get a pretty bad display of what the lights are doing. The best option is probably to use interactive render region (IRR) in the viewport which can be pretty quick if you lower the details setting (arrow icon on right-hand side).
