How Can I set REAL light according to measure?

Post by andras85 » Mon Aug 27, 2007 8:45 am

Yes...It is really strange question. You know the light has dimensions: candela (sign: cd ) or lumen (sign: lm ). Is it possible to set these in Blender with Indigo? or I must expirement.

also make sure that you model everything in proper scale, or set the world scale parameter in exporters, because then the lumens and candela stuff wont hold true.

i just realized candela means candle in italian and spanish ^^
