This rollout lets you determine which parts of the lighting are included in the rendering.

Direct Light On

When on, the render element includes information from any direct lights in the scene. The light’s color and projection map should appear.

NoteThe final color for direct lighting takes surface normals into consideration.
Indirect Light On

When on, the render element includes information from ambient or bounced lighting in the scene.

NoteWhen using radiosity, expect effects such as color bleed.
Shadows On

When on, the render element includes shadows.
