Radiosity Question w/Reflections
Hi, I'm currently working on a scene with several luminous objects lighting the entire scene, however, I want half of them to be invisible (i.e. to generate the required light without being seen)
I made them 'Unseen by Camera' and turned off the 'Cast Shadows', and this seemed to work fine until I noticed that the supposedly 'invisible' objects were still visible in the reflection of the wall. I tried enabling 'Unseen by Rays', but while this did get rid of the unwanted reflections, it also prevented the light emitting from them from appearing. Is there any way to disable reflections for just these objects, without completely losing all of the rays? Oh, and I'm using Lightwave[8], if that helps. |
