Lightbox

Python: "map_lightbox"

The lightbox map provides an easy way to overlay a geometry-less box on the IBL map. IBL lightboxes can be configured parametrically. Combined with a shadow catcher floor, they generally lead to significantly faster renders compared to an equivalent room modeled with true geometry.

Common¶

Node alias¶

Python: "map_alias"

Human-readable node alias.

Alias color¶

Python: "map_alias_color"

Identificative node color.

Main¶

Exposure¶

Python: "map_lightbox_exposure"

Controls the global exposure of the lightbox.

Ambient Occlusion radius¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ao_radius"

Defines the AO radius used to approximate diffuse illumination inside the lightbox.

Enable Ambient Occlusion¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ao_enable"

Globally enables/disables AO in the lightbox walls. AO is used to produce an approximation to diffuse illumination inside the lightbox.

Transparent¶

Python: "map_lightbox_transparent"

Globally enables/disables transparency in the lightbox walls. Transparency lets the IBL shine through (i.e., in addition to) the lightbox.

Ceiling¶

Enable ceiling¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ceiling_enable"

Enables the ceiling lightbox plane.

Enable Ambient Occlusion¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ceiling_ao_enable"

Toggles on/off AO in the ceiling lightbox plane.

Enable transparency¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ceiling_transparent"

Toggles on/off transparency in the ceiling lightbox plane.

Color¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ceiling_color"

Defines the color of the ceiling lightbox plane.

Color map¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ceiling_color_map"

Intensity¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ceiling_intensity"

Distance¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ceiling_dist"

Controls the distance between the ceiling lightbox plane and the origin of coordinates.

Input colorspace¶

Python: "map_lightbox_ceiling_color_inv_gamma"

Interprets the input emission color/image as regular sRGB (gamma=2.2), as linear (no gamma), or as raw (gamma=1/2.2). e.g., most images are in sRGB, but .hdr/.exr images generally expect to be interpreted as linear. When in doubt, cycle through the options, as one will clearly look good and the other two will look washed out or burned out in direct vision.
