Hey all,
Have been playing with this for awhile and haven't been able to figure it out. I am trying to create the impression of a screen, complete with colored glow around it.
This works fine for a flat screen, where all I have to do is create a Rectangle Light, assign a bitmap of the image I want to use, and make sure it is visible. Viola, it shows the image I want, plus colored glow around the edges.
When I try to do the same for a curved screen (using a Mesh Light), I set the bitmap the same way I did the first time, except now I need to place a texture behind the light, set it to invisible, and I still get a blue tint, with no sign of the actual image underneath.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
As you can see, here the screen has a green reflection on the bottom, where there is grass, and a blue reflection at the top where there is sky.
In this image the entire scene has become blue, and the bottom edge glows blue rather than green.
