Hi!

It would be nice to have an "ambient-light" for a certain object (3d-actor), so that 3D objects fit better in the 2D rendered scenes.

Bye,
Oli

Ambient light for the scene is not enough?

[FogGobbler]

An ambient light for an individual 3D object would be great, because then you could adjust the lighting so that the object fits in the rendered scene. I´ve got dark and light areas in the scene and by using the scene-ambient light the objects look rather odd.

I would not do this for the objects, but for scene regions. so if you put an object from the dark corner of a scene to a bight place, the region you put it to determines how much it's lit up.

Yup, sounds like a good idea to me. Sort of a primitive lighting without actually using lights.

Thanks for the idea, but i don´t think that will work for me.

Say I´ve got a main character that walks from a dark area to a light one then this method works beautifully.

But I want to have my character lit with one ambient light and say an oil barrel (3D object) in a dark corner of the scene lit by another ambient light.
