The lighting element contains the effects of lighting within the scene, including color, shadows, direct and indirect light.
This rollout lets you determine which parts of the lighting are included in the rendering.
Direct Light On— When on, the render element includes information from any direct lights in the scene. The light’s color and projection map should appear.
Note: The final color for direct lighting takes surface normals into consideration.
Indirect Light On— When on, the render element includes information from ambient or bounced lighting in the scene.
Note: When using radiosity, you should expect things such as color bleed.
