Lights - Unity Official Tutorials

[@MartinRyleOShea]

Great Tutorial. Unity really needed to do some of there own videos for new comers to the engine, with these I feel they hit the nail on the head. THANK YOU!

[@林新-q8z]

This is a valuable tutorial for Graphics in Unity

[@SuperGamer87]

Unity offers subscription-based access to Unity Pro now. You can make smaller monthly payments to access Pro features. It's a new option available to make Unity Pro more accessible to more developers, as an option in addition to buying the full version as standalone at full price. Gotta love dat' Unity!

Dear Unity, how come game scenes like the one shown in this tutorial look amazing and realistic, while the scenes that I create always look have those 'Slenderman' graphics (bad, unrealistic, ugly)?

[@ShatabdaRoy115]

Cuz you aren't a good game dev that's why

[@brandonfarfan1978]

Nice tut.👍😃 I have a question, if I turn off these lights or the intensity, to make a scene look like night time, does it still use up cpu or resources?

[@JONIMASAKIS]

When will you guys release that parkour tutorial you promised a year ago?

[@MethshockFilms]

Holy shit, I just tried the free Pro trial and you're right.. just dragging a few scripts around does turn your game into a masterpiece with Far Cry 3 graphics! O.o! I would buy the pro version if it didn't cost so freaking much.. damn...

[@Wolcik3000]

I like the idea of light darkening everyhing to be illumiated by other lights

[@danielbatista8760]

Does anyone know where i can find a video that teaches you how to use light?

[@reishill]

In the inspector of the lights theres an option for what type of shadow you want, No shadows, Hard shadows, soft shadows, pick from there as the video shows

[@zagmodell]

also dont forget to say that mixed mode with light probes after baking does not render realtime shadows at all. This engine is just too frustrating. And a year after that bug is found you still did nothing

[@Tostas89]

beacause those post processing effects (and most of the pretty stuff) are only on the pro edition

[@zlymaciek]

Can you tell me how can I make button with on/off light? I have hover script, but it's for changing scenes and sound when clicking. I really need it, can you help me? Thanks!

[@soorenaasl9519]

unity is the best

[@tjcterrillchristian1]

How did you guys get those light rays to shine off objects? :D tnx in advance

[@gamerfi9451]

can i some how mark to object where the light comes out and how bright it is?

[@Tymon0000]

Where is the mentioned link to baking tutorial?

[@FedericoLaggiard]

those lights settings are available on pro edition only?

[@Tymon0000]

I don't have render settings in my edit menu.

[@rvian4]

For lighting settings goto Window>Lighting> Lighting Settings

[@adriandeveraaa]

My goodness... Cookies, and baked? All these food references are making me hungry ): WHYYY OH WHY

[@meganoldavo]

When I use a Point light and enable shadows, Unity 3D saids "only directional lights have shadows in forward rendering". Help please, thanks.

[@teamO_X]

i think it's for pro version only...

[@kimjong8461]

Is there a way to detect the brightness where a game object is placed for dynamic shadows? Something like in the Thief or Splinter Cell games!

[@kimjong8461]

Yes, but then the amount of darkness doesn't gradually change and does not detect the "amount" of darkness ;)

[@kimjong8461]

Thanks for the info, but it sounds pretty performance heavy if you would have about 4 triggers for every light if you have a lot of lights in the scene. I've been thinking about raycast but that is also pretty performance heavy if you have multiple lights is it not?

[@kimjong8461]

Thats actually a good Idea :) Hahaha no i'm not Korean. Google wanted to know my name and to hell with that XD I just wrote a random name :P

[@wfmg7235]

I am working on a game that will take place in one area, and I'm not sure how to make the texturing any good. How can you have different material properties for pieces of the same texture?

[@stratoskakalis1580]

WFMG maybe it's late but I would suggest taking a look at substance painter. Do note it is not free to use but it's a professional tool!

[@wfmg7235]

Guy that likes games :P Alright, well, what about merging different maps that you make with cpetry.org/Normal_Map_Online/, as well as making manual metallic maps?

[@stratoskakalis1580]

WFMG I don't understand what you mean by manual metallic maps. Substance painter will take care of that as its exporting textures on all of its channels. (normal maps, occlusion, emissive, metallic etc.) even though metallic would most of the time be a simple value. As far as merging is concerned, what exactly do you mean. Which way would you want to "merge" textures? Anything simple enough could be made in photoshop I guess but what exactly do you mean by merging.

[@wfmg7235]

Guy that likes games :P Taking the different elements of the texture that need different values, creating them individually, then putting all the pictures back together into a texture atlas.

[@stratoskakalis1580]

WFMG yeah substance painter won't be able to do that maybe you'll have to look online. I hope you find what you are looking for :)!

[@Alt_0]

I have pro, but I tried EVERY quality setting but my shadows won't show up

[@barrywills1546]

Thanks

[@latzobear]

you sound like cenk uygyur

[@guyo83]

This is out of date, please remove / archive out of date videos, it is very confusing.

[@danielbatista8760]

This video is out dated dont watch

[@ShatabdaRoy115]

We can see that actually...
