Missing VRay Sun Intensity multiplier

[daviddeacon]

Hi,

I’m looking to use the VRay Sun inside of solaris, and the Intensity multiplier that in Maya is missing from solaris.

Dear @daviddeacon , hello.

We have a fresh created and dedicated section for such questions.
I will move now your thread there > V-Ray for Houdini :: Solaris/USD.

Intensity from the “Base Properties” is used for all lights. Why do you need a separate intensity for Sun?

[daviddeacon]

Hi,

I didn’t realise that worked on the sun, but I think we still need another multiplier on the sun. As you need to set the intensity to 0.001 on the base properties, before the sun isn’t super bright and now with such a low value the Houdini GL view is black.

Alright, makes sense. Will add to the next nightly.

Awesome! Thanks.
