Title: fireflies when Lightmixing
Post by: lukx on 2018-02-25, 07:55:39

I'm getting lot of fireflies when using Lightmix. Basically when bumping up lights, fireflies appear. Maybe I'm doing something wrong when using Lightmix. Shoudl all lights have 1 power as starting point when using lightmix to avoid those fireflies?

Yep, as noted on the helpdesk, raising intensities too much will introduce noise. You can use LightMix to tweak settings, then bake back to the scene. You could start with intensities that are "too high" (or "the highest you will need for one particular LightMix set up") and then reduce intensity in LightMix as this does not introduce noise.
