Title: Lights Showing
Post by: Glorybound on 2019-04-26, 22:21:22
I have these lights not to show (visible directly), but they are showing anyway. What am I doing wrong? They are IES lights. Same lights in front of the glass are fine.

Direct visibility means only direct rays between camera and the light. If the lights are visible in reflections or refractions - which seems to be the case here - you also need to uncheck these properties.

Yes, I did, but no luck. Turning off the glass between the camera and light solved it, so it looks to be a bug.

Yep, you were correct. It happened that it was a reflection from ones behind the camera. The reflections were almost in the exact same place as lights behind the glass. Thank you for the help!
