Lights

Anaark

Hello all I am somewhat of a new user.  I have a working knowledge of most of the other things hoewver the lights elude me.  I either have them to brite or not bright enough and when it seems I have lights on the items in the scene to light up multipole items (Headlights on cars, lamp posts) the lights seem to shut down.  

I havbe watched several videos ont he lights however I runinto the same problem either to bright or not enough.  Can anyone direct me to a video or simething that might help?

You can adjust the Tone mapping settings (Gamma value, plus options to make everything over or under a certain level white/black). It is a good idea to use the Iray preview (if rendering in Iray) or the 3Delight IPR (in the Aux Viewport, if using 3Delight) while setting up the lights.
