Re: Gymnastics

Maybe - looks like I might have to do some post work for sure.
I have a material that is a paint that has .1 refraction and 1 shininess, most of the blue is gone...but in darker areas it still exists.

Re: Gymnastics

Okay, so what can I do to down play the blue reflection on the ceiling without making it look like it has no definition at all? I have tried creating a white material that has a Index of Refraction of 1 and Shininess of 10...but it still results in a blue ceiling. Trying to get it to still look most...

I only notice this because as part of my background I worked as a journeyman in the HVAC industry for 30+ years. Part of that work was done by good ole MEP folks and Revit...though they left the ...

Re: Gymnastics

Great work, Marvins_dad. For the florescent light, can you put an invisible rectangle just below the light, and set it to emit with a material and load the IES into that material definition? Then instead of shining up only in those 2 spots, it would shine up and fill the whole fixture with light wh...

Re: Gymnastics

I used the IES profiles of the actual lights used in the ceiling of the gymnastics space...would still be nice if they dropped like a fluorescent tube instead of seeing the point light. I have knocked down the blue of the mats and am fudging the ceiling reflectance so the entire ceiling doesn't turn...
