View Full Version : 'Glow' diminishes with each clone?

Hello,

Wondering if anyone could explain the following?

I create an omni light and assign a 'glow' lens effect to it, which works fine.

Lets say I make 8 instanced copies of this omni in a row. When I render the view, the 'glow' effect diminishes in brightness with each copy, and on the last one there appears to be almost no effect at all.

Does anyone know why?

cheers,

Dave

hmm... are your cloned lights going off into the distance by any chance?

I've had similar issues like this with glows. However, I couldn't get them to diminish with distance unless they were animated to move away from the camera.

just a thought.

I find that sometimes glow forgets how bright i is meant to be, and you need to go back into video post and reload it or refresh it.

And then all of a sudden it works fine.
