CINEVERSITY

Hi appointment-insect,

Thanks for the demo.

Here is a scene file that allows us to see a fresh start; I have placed a Mesh Object to it for precise comparison. When this works, we can take a look deeper. Use a new scene for new tests.

CV4_2023_drs_23_SIsc_01.c4d

I would just start over; I have tested this scene with 2023.1 and 2023.2, just in case. The pale-greenish shape should be the same. The Triangle is just another check.

Let me know if that works for you.

All the best

P.S.: I hope an affordable device for your DJI drone will be soon available. (I have the same problem, but my pilot license needs renewal, so I have no time pressure currently.)

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the update, very much appreciated. 🙂

Great that you found your workaround; I wonder if a custom build Capsule could help here. Brainstorming here: Placing the light under the Capsule, setting it up for different uses, and adjusting it. Perhaps allow for individual or global adjustments, light group-wise. If you think that would improve your workflow, please let me know, and I will discuss it internally.

My concerns with the dual light setup might not be yours, but Light Groups and Light Project settings need to be kept in sync. Otherwise, there might be a surprise at one point.

The option that tech support mentions is the Preview> Illumination Adjustment slider.
This has zero impact on rendering; it is just a preview.
