Christmas Tree Lighting


#1

Hello everyone,

I want to know how to do the lighting effect on a Christmas tree, I have attached an image .( the small lights )
Software: Autodesk Maya

use lots of point lights with quadratic or cubic falloff (falloff is set by default as none). then use light intensities way above 1 (if you’re using cub, start with 1000 for every 2 units (in maya, centimeters) you want your light to travel). i.e., change to 1000 and double or halve the value until you see what you want in the IPR mode of the render view.
