Skybox and Lighting Problem

Dear Enscape 3D Team

I loaded a night Skybox in my Rhino scene but it shows the skybox very bright, as if the scene is set to daytime and I don’t know where to change this to get a night scene?

Also I can’t change the Radius and the Intensity of my Lights (Pointlight) is this just not possible at the moment, or did I miss something?

Thank you very much,

Best

Miriam

Hi Miriam,

every color besides black in a skybox will light up your scene. You can control the brightness of your skybox in the Enscape settings in our latest preview version:

Regards your lighting:

You changed the light properties in Rhino but it wasn’t updated in Enscape?

Thank you very much for your answer!

I downloadet the update and now the Skybox problem is solved.

Yes exactly, I change Intensity of the pointlight but it stays the same brightness in Enscape. The intensity only changes as I change the daylight, means, when it’s night the pointlight is very strong and all white, when I change the day time to sunset, then the point light is softer and not so strong, but also then I cannot control it with Rhino settings.

Miriam, maybe “auto exposure” is enabled?

It was enabled, but after I disabled it i still couldnt control the light.

I also opened a new file, only with some cubes (I thought maybe it’s the file size) but it doesn’t work either.

@MiFi : So you change the intensity slider and the light in Enscape does not change? Have never heard about it.

Can you please send us your test file with the cubes and use the feedback button so that we know your system specs. Do you use any other plugins for managing your lights?

That was it! I was trying to manage the lights with the vray settings and didn’t realise it.. a real beginners mistake.. I changed the renderer to rhino and now it works, of course.

Thank you so much!
