Great tutorial, Ryan! Just did the exterior lighting one also - but have noted that there are many shared settings that make an interior/exterior type level impossible, no matter what you try to do with Post Processing Volumes... and can't find any videos explaining how to light interiors and exteriors simultaneously which is something architects often want to be able to do. Do you have a workflow for something like this?

To begin with, I would truly like to thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. This was a great series, and something I have struggled with for a long time. I have a few questions if you don't mind, and I never really received a good answer to them, hoping that you will. 1- Let's say I want to create a cinematic video, I don't care about frame rate cuz it's not a playable map... and I will use raytracing as well. It is my understanding that if I set all my lights to movable, I don't have to worry about light mass settings, lightmap UV resolution, and so on .... to begin with, is that correct?? and if there are any pointers in that regard, I would truly appreciate if you can highlight them for me and give me some tips. 2- Again, for cinematics, Will I get the exact same high res - photorealistic renders with all lights being movable lights ?? OR ... will I get better results with actually putting the lights to static and baking them?? I would really appreciate it if you could come back to me with a detailed reply on the above ... I understand I am taking a bit of your time, but again, your videos are great and your knowledge on the topic is something we all learn from. Thanks a lot, looking forward to hearing back from you.
@ThatRyanManning4 жыл бұрын
1- While yes, setting your lights to movable means you don't have to worry about lightmass, lightmaps, etc....you are fundamentally losing a key part to making your scenes look realistic. Let me explain. In order for lighting to run in realtime, there's a trade off. Realtime lighting does cast realtime light and shadows, however you don't get the full effect of lighting. For example: GI (global Illumination) It's too intensive of a calculation to handle on every frame. This is why using baked lighting is a good idea. Baking your lighting will deepen you scene's depth and provide that level of detail that can't be achieved in realtime due to performance reasons. My advice - use a combination of baked and non-baked lighting...even if your baked lighting is only 1 or 2 global lights. 2 - When you render cinematics out of UE4, the engine render stops running at realtime to render each frame at maximum quality. However, if you have a ton of movable lights, it will add additional processing time so the engine can handle all your lighting, but this entirely depends on your setup and how optimized it is.
@saebr4 жыл бұрын
@@ThatRyanManning thanks a lot for your reply... I truly appreciate it. Just to clarify... Even if I render cinematics, and the engine stops being real time and renders frame by frame... I will still not be getting for example GI if all lights are movable... Correct?
@ThatRyanManning4 жыл бұрын
@@saebr The engine will run in realtime, however, when rendering Cinematics, UE4 will make sure every frame is rendered. You will still get the same results as you have built in editor, however, the engine's priority is to render every frame...even if it's 1 FPS. Hopefully that makes sense. TL:DR: The engine cranks up the quality and renders every frame, even if the realtime performance is 1FPS. You'll get the highest quality render.

how does the daytime/nighttime work exactly, won't it fuck up your bakes? or does that technique only work with dynamic lighting and not static lighting? anyways, great series and clear explanations. I used to do everything at once, which caused me a lot of time.
@ThatRyanManning4 жыл бұрын
Lighting scenarios build/bake individually; so any lights that are contained in a lighting scenarios won't affect other scenarios. Basically the engine builds the scene for each lighting scenario and stores it in a separate build data file.

Hi, thanks for your tutorials, I learned a lot. I am trying to light a bar counter with led strip lighting below the bar counter, when I try to use rectangular lights, and set it to movable, i casts shadows but it casts from the center and does not behave like a rectangular light. How do you approach this kind of situation? thanks in advance!
@ThatRyanManning4 жыл бұрын
Rect lights should cast from the rectangular volume. Make sure you're not using a spot light. If you use the Emmisvie material method, it will calculate shadows like a rect light but only with built lighting and not dynamic.
@jaysoncabuhat394 жыл бұрын
Ryan Manning i used the rect lights but, i think when it reach a certain length, the casting of shadow is like of a point light. So what i did while waiting for your reply, is instead of having a long rectangular light with a length of 10 meters, i made it small into 2 meters so the shadows look much better. Ill also try to use the emissive approach as per your advice! Thanks again!

I'm confused by the lighting scenarios. When I create them and make separate direct lights for each scenario, I try and Play the level, I get no directional light or skylight affecting the world. They come back when I Stop Playing. Couldn't put the items that I had designated to my daytime back in my persistent level, so lost them all when I tried to delete. I'm running an nDisplay test tomorrow and really want to cinch this up, any advice you could offer in the short term would be much appreciated.

Ryan. Would you help a bit with lighting scenarios pipeline?.. Do i need to have both Day and Night levels already baked and ONLY then create new level and add day/night light casters to that levels? Or just have Base_level and from it create day/night_level scenario from appropriate lights (just lights). But what with day/night lightmaps? And how to be with an objects and mats, for example lamp shades, hdri-spheres, maybe closed curtains and so on... Put it in scenarios? Watched other tuts and people adding whole levels as scenarios, so as i understand in that cases it works just like streaming complete new levels with geometry etc? Thanks.
