Title: Lights C4D
Post by: ozwald on 2018-11-02, 17:08:22
Hello team.
I bring you a doubt.
When using C4D lights is there the possibility of being able to manipulate the shadows?
always come out with a hard cut, I would like them to be soft
The lus I'm using is focus light

If you are looking for soft shadows.... increase the size of light, small light size creates hard shadows.

I think it does not explain me well ... I'm using 4D cinema lights, not Corona
I'm using focus and the shadows are hard, I think I should use area light to avoid that

May I ask why you're using C4D lights and not Corona? Of course you have every right to, just wondering. ;)

I saw some tutorials where they say that Corona accepts lights from C4D, and I wanted to try directional lights to see its termination.
I think!! that if corona accepts this type of lights it is for something ..... and for that reason I used it.

Now, seeing that Corona accepts these lights and how he wanted to play with the shadows was doing tests.

Some time ago in this forum I asked if only CORONA lights should be used, and I
They put the links of the videos where it is accepted.

What do you advise me, do not use them, and only work with CORONA lights?

@ oddvisionary: Use the SPREAD option in Corona light for more directionality.


"SPREAD", means ? new to me.... I am not seeing any spread option in Corona Light ?
 
Thanks.
