Setting up the light intensity in the physical sky

trcsilva · May 3rd, 2008

Hi there,

is there any way to diminish the sunlight intensity in Maxwell's physical sky settings? My image is saturated due to the sun being too bright...

Thx in advance

Yes change you camera settings (f-stop and shutter speed), the physical sun has no intensity adjustments except for what time of day it is.

you can also influence the sky luminance intensity when rendering in multilight mode.

cheers

Thx guys. I also figured out that, if I use a darker version of my texture, it ends up with the tone want.
