Make Objects Ignore Light Source - Blender Tutorial

[@chimpana]

Lit.

[@ionpal9568]

Oh, SO lit.

[@hughjanes4883]

But also, AO lit because of the bounces

[@minotaursgamezone]

very clever

[@miafei]

OMG, some people might think "what would I ever need this"... well, I need it now and this tutorial was a life savior. I'm using blender 4.1.1 and it worked perfectly. Thanks!

[@fergadelics]

Too busy making stuff to hear about light linking. That’s kinda awesome

[@onjofilms]

Cool. There is a lot of features in Blender I don't know what to do with them. Now there is a lot plus one.

[@cjune7836]

This is absolutely Great for Archviz, thanks for this (I used Shadow Linking - the one below Light Linking, to make a water caustics spotlight go through the floorboards to get the correct pattern on the walls)

[@smallhat1]

I can not tell you with words how much this helped me

[@ForcePF]

You must be psychic. This is exactly what I was trying to do today 😄 Many thanks!

[@ianjohnstone8028]

Excellent tutorial as ever.

[@lumina_l6435]

Men I love u, and the coffie stir tutorial! Amazing! I wanted to make stir animation for my college, but didnt know how, u saved my life and bring happines to me!

[@PoggersFloppa]

is that a brand new default cube tutorial?

[@dodolee8621]

Nice,love this video.❤

[@no-one3795]

The only problem is that it doesn't block light bounces.

[@edinspiegel]

if you want to block lightbounces you can just place a plane with camera visibility turned off and a black color between the objects - that way it will block the bounces as well - oh and if you want the shadow to only affect a certain object, then you can use shadow linking to do that aswell

[@Bumpy-Man]

@1:12 does setting the Light Paths Max Bounces to 0 not work for your application?

[@brett_fitz4569]

Can you make another tutorial on motion tracking vertical footage

[@aminyusof574]

thank you.. i use this faetures a lot in C4D Redshift.. finally i found the way to do it in blender thanks to you

[@bsko_turbo]

long awaited feature, thank for the tip

[@swordofkings128]

Cycles is catching up to Blender Internal with this one!

[@nimajg6977]

Nice Tutorial, appreciate you

[@zielgenau9299]

Thanks! Was searching for this exact feature about a year ago 😢

[@andrewkraevskii]

About year ago it was still in development)

[@mysticmarble94]

​@@andrewkraevskii I assume that's why his search wasn't successful 😅

[@Starsweeper-OG]

This is not silly at all, thank you!

[@susiesu321]

This save my life!! thank you so much sir😭

[@Andronius47]

Boy you safed my live 😂 Had this Problem for a bit and didnt know how its called so i hat no plan how to find a solution

[@alchemlemnis]

??? The shading option at 0:48 isn't there

[@williamthegeckowallace3573]

did u ever find the answer ?

[@alchemlemnis]

@@williamthegeckowallace3573 no

[@pineappleshakelmao]

The reason shading doesn't show up is because it only appears if your render engine is set to cycles.

[@JonasLavarini]

@@pineappleshakelmao mine is set to cycles and it doesn't appear

[@pineappleshakelmao]

@@JonasLavarini huh, that’s what worked for me. I’ll look into it more when I get home.

[@TheAmazingCowpig]

Ah, light linking... something that other 3D rendering software has had for a long time now, but it took Blender until recently to implement it. Well, better late than never.

[@Dandemonium_]

Brilliant video and stupidly helpful! Thanks! 🙂

[@sebmotions]

i only needed link lighting for Eevee engine, not for cycles

[@bUildYT]

How can i do that with hdri ? I want the background to be nice and bright but not light the szene (or at lrast adjust how much) i have this so often that i take a sky texture, and either i make it nice and bright and realistic but than all objects get lit suuuper much, or i make the hdri very dark, but than it looks unnatural, i know theres a away, allready done it a few times, might find the tutorial, but maybe u here know a fast easy method, a hdri linking folder or smt :)

[@gordonbrinkmann]

The light linking is something to specifically exclude or include objects differently from each other. If you simply want the whole scene to be lit differently than how bright the HDRI is to the camera, then just mix two different versions of the background shader with the "Is Camera Ray" output of the Light Path node in the Shader Editor.

[@schirleyamaral]

Thank you!!

[@ahmedbourja3136]

Thank you so much

[@Jusqme]

Soooo good!

[@davidgomes7894]

I love you lots. Thanks!!

[@MeaningfulLies]

you call it silly tutorial??!!! this is life saver that annoying lights make unwanted shades every damn time thanks alot

[@GdeGrados]

thanks man

[@ZorianCazinscii]

Круто что вы включили комментарии.

[@learningforever957]

But... I tested it, and I cant make a light to receive light but do not cast shadow using light linking. When I disable an object from Light Linking automatically disables it from Shadow Linking. Any way to avoid that? EDIT as Im writing this: It seems like the light/shadow links are a resource, so if you just duplicate them the light and dark links are not linked anymore and you can disable one object in one and disable it in another. This is awesome!

[@rmrmrm3974]

Thank you so much!!

[@Tw_id]

How do i make it not have light bounce because i still put light bounce to 0 but i still see bounce

[@arturo1548693764]

Can you make hdri only affect one object?

[@jacknight3690]

Nice!

[@rikovladimir8655]

I need this for the eyes

[@salmascholz]

Can you use that in eevee? It seems it sonly fro cycles :(

[@julious3603]

very cool!!!

[@chemp113]

Magik! Thnx!!! ❤

[@r.corchado816]

Legendary

[@EmiliyaS-fh1zj]

I desperately need this for Eevee, do you have any idea how to do it in Eevee?

[@sugarcane_is_rad]

Good to know

[@sipitdrive]

why my blender cant show the light linking ?

[@DevPalliSri]

Awesome !

[@ashh.r]

thnx

[@PatchworkStudios]

Jokes on me, I need to do this in EEVEE 😅

[@happyorb306]

wow cool

[@jeffersongutierritos9078]

I want make the oposite

[@FfsSamber]

😂😂😂 Best intro ever!!

[@MrNobodyX3]

Instructions unclear now I'm blind

[@yahootube90]

Yeah, up until recently, light linking wasn't even a thing in blender and your only choice was to do separate render layers or something. Was quite annoying.

[@ruudygh]

do it for Eevee

[@gbutube8]

Dark matter :)

[@FromInfinityTV]

🤘

[@dmnsterdevil4682]

Comments are backkkkk

[@lonezsi]

[@gordonbrinkmann]

​@@lonezsi Because he didn't want people to comment on his videos?

[@ZorianCazinscii]
