  • This seemed like a simple trick to me, but I still come across many people who don't know about it (and I recall not knowing about it once upon a time too!). In less than 5 minutes time, you'll be in the know too.
    I hope you enjoy the session and learn something new! Feel free to comment any feedback/questions below, or follow my channel if you enjoyed this.

    Gavin, the option for two Emissive Lenses, with values on a Day/Night Switch, Global Parameter, and two lenses swopped out . Its a whole project solution, with inherent issues with instances.

      Thanks Pierre, I'm actually considering global parameters or Dynamo as an option also to batch swap lens materials.

      @@AussieBIMGuru The dynamo is better ? Because you could set the time responses, and the exports done to image files as part of the deal. But, as we said previously some simple steps need to be retained because you forget how when there are too many automations. Haha

      Dynamo is probably better, but not all users know how to use it.

      Gavin, fair response. That's why I like the Global parameters, I think we do not use them enough. I'm not entirely sure what the performance impact is with Globals. Another thing may be that Player could have slider bars to allow seasons, months, time of day and light levels. That would allow users to have a snap-shot utility. Another opportunity for someone to do....

    I have a doubt: For some reason Enscape is not rendering artificial lights 'ON' during daytime in my project. Please help with a solution.

    3:08 - 3:38 the audio works but the video freezes. Correct me if I am wrong but could you do a visibility parameter to turn on/off the material for day/night modes? This may require having two lenses, each with a different material.

    • @AussieBIMGuru
      @AussieBIMGuru  Před 3 lety

      Yeah my webcam does that sometimes. Hoping to move onto an eos m50 next year.
      You could use a visibility parameter set with 3 lenses (on/off/night), would just require triple modelling.
      I'm current exploring another option which is associating global parameters to the lens material instead.

    Excellent !!!question, I tend to see in Revit "grey colors
    whether its plaster or paint, come out brownish in enscape. It doesn't matter if its interior rendering or exterior. Is there a work around solution?

    • @AussieBIMGuru
      @AussieBIMGuru  Před rokem

      I believe this would come down to one of three things:
      1. The warmth of the scene, and colour of the sun in enscape settings
      2. The colour of artificial lights
      3. The colour of surrounding objects that reflect light
      Greys are usually light enough that they naturally pick up a bit of adjacent colour (this is how real lighting works), but if its too extreme try either reducing warmth in enscape and/or the saturation of surrounding materials.

    • @AussieBIMGuru

      Not 100% sure what you mean by the halo. If its a glow that it casts on adjacent surfaces typically this would be driven by the IES profile.

      Between them isn't possible as it isn't realistic (light shafts etc). This only occurs in real life as light catches particles in the air like dust i believe so revit cannot do this. Most people add this in post production. Surface light is all related to the ies file you use.
