Title: Sun Settings with A5 build?
Post by: steyin on 2014-01-08, 17:27:29: Hello all,

Just started fooling around with Corona to try it out and wanted clarification on one thing. Since the A5 build doesn't have the full options under the Post Processing tab to help with exposure, I'm using extremely low sun & environment settings to get a normal looking image.

I was wondering if this is the way to go about things without the options to adjust the intensity multiplier and highlight burn? My sun is set at .005-.15 intensity and the CoronaSky environment multiplier I've been lowering to .1-.4.

I've been running some material tests using Jeff Patton's mat scene file before getting into a full blown scene, so I can post some images if necessary a little later.

Thanks for any help!

I have the same problem. The Alpha 5 versions has a different menu and the Intensity Multiplier and Highlight Burn are missing. I assume those parameters are not present in the latest version. The general Corona settings from the forum are a bit different too.
What can we do to solve this missing? Render comes out overexposed (practically white)

Thanks

Bogs
