Light Preview

Post by Diurno » 02 Dec 2009, 08:56

Hi all, i've a question:
i've a scene with a light animation (a sort of broken light, so the light continuosly appear and disappear), but the scene is so heavy, so i've to let the scene render all the night and then see if i like the light effect; so my question is: there is a way to do a sort of "capture" or preview to see the light effect?

Hi.,.!

Just found this post...well, it depends on which parameters are animated...normally you will get a feedback in the ogl-view. This one you can capture and watch it in real time...or did I get you wrong..?

cheers

the parameter animated is the Multyplier, but i think the problem still cause the lights are "portal lights"....
