| + | ====== Everything about Lights (Radiosity, Dynamic, Shadows, Sky Light, ...) ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | FIXME This page is //really// outdated and incomplete. All types of light sources should be mentioned here: Radiosity area light sources | ||
| + | (whose irradiance is defined with the material), radiosity point light source entities, dynamic light+shadow entities, sky light, ... (anything else?) | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Radiosity Area Light Sources ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Nearly every texture in ''Games/DeathMatch/Textures'' that looks like a light source, is a light source. | ||
| + | That is, such textures are defined to actually emit light. | ||
| + | Thus, there is hardly ever a need to use "Isotropic Point Light" entities at all. | ||
| + | Please have a look into the ''CaLight.cfg'' file for a list of textures that emit light, | ||
| + | but for future compatibility you should not make changes in this file (except for your own new textures). | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Sky Light ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | You can add sky domes to your world by applying the "sky" texture to the "ceiling" surfaces. | ||
| + | You also have to set the sky name, sunlight direction, and sunlight irradiance (intensity and color) in the **Map properties** dialog. | ||
| + | The table below lists a few examples in order to give you a rough idea about what to enter. | ||
| + | (Don't worry if you have initially forgotten to enter these settings in the **Map properties** dialog. | ||
| + | The CaLight tool that you will use later gives you a second chance to override them (see section [[Mapping::Compiling#CaLight]]).) | ||
| + | |||
| + | Example values for sky dome and sunlight settings (to be set in the CaWE **Map properties** dialog): | ||
| + | ^ AEonsCube (cold moonlight): ^^ | ||
| + | | skyname | Snow2 | | ||
| + | | sun_direction_x | 2 | | ||
| + | | sun_direction_y | -5 | | ||
| + | | sun_direction_z | -9 | | ||
| + | | sun_irradiance_r | 2 | | ||
| + | | sun_irradiance_g | 4 | | ||
| + | | sun_irradiance_b | 6 | | ||
| + | ^ CastleMF (warm light of a sunrise): ^^ | ||
| + | | skyname | Nottingham | | ||
| + | | sun_direction_x | 3 | | ||
| + | | sun_direction_y | -6 | | ||
| + | | sun_direction_z | -3 | | ||
| + | | sun_irradiance_r | 100 | | ||
| + | | sun_irradiance_g | 63 | | ||
| + | | sun_irradiance_b | 30 | | ||
