Josh Schulman Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Does anyone have a good way to get VW to accurately render linear LED fixtures? I'm talking about Colorblazes or better still, the ALQ Bar from Acclaim http://www.acclaimlighting.com/products/product-detail/product/alq-bar.html I know that I can make a linear light object out of a line but that's not accurate. When I import an IES file into a custom light, it behaves more like a spotlight than what I am after. Thanks Quote Link to comment
F. Meilleur Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 This doesn't seem to have be addressed ever since the post... I'd also like to see that happen, how hard can it be to add this to the program ? The fact that I have to go in photoshop to create approximate effect to create render texture just so I can have a render with what the light is supposed to be doing is frustrating and time wasting.
