Hi,

I have multiple objects in my scene and multiple lights, I want two of the lights to NOT hit one of the objects with specular but still generate light on that object. Another light still hits said object with specular.

Thanks if you know how. I don't think light linking can do it unless I missed the option.

Exclude the object from the lights, then duplicate the lights, turn off the specular of duplicates and include the object.
