I’m trying to test new VRAYies light in sp2. Each time i add a new VrayIes light in the scene i have just black render after all. Pure black and nothing else. Whatever i’m blind or something don’t know how to set up this light. I tried to put an ies web file into the light slot it doesn’t show anything at all. I tried to add vray physical camera , Vray frame buffer itc. All the time result is the same. Pure black render looks like no light in the scene at all…
“Properly” means that the size of your objects should make sense in the units you have chosen (e.g. a room would be several meters across, rather than millimeters or kilometers).
Mmm. Not sure about this. I have a simple plane, 10 units x 10 units. On the plane I have 2 simple boxes, one is 3x4x5 units and the other is 2x2x3 units. My display unit scale is mm (I am an architect and always think in mm!) and my system unit scale is meters (so that distances from origin etc are smaller values).
Using this setup, the objects are ‘reaslitic’ dimensions - kind of ‘room’ sized.
I put in one vries light using an Erco ies file. When I render, the scene is just black.
If I change the System Unit Scale to cm, it renders as expected, but my objects are now 0.1m x 0.1m, 0.03x0.04x0.05m and 0.02x0.02x0.03m respectively. These are hardley ‘realistic’ sizes to be lit by the ies light.
