Can anyone tell me how to dim the lights after you've imported through the textport - 20 lights from lightgen. My object is completely burned out. I know there is a way of dimming them all at once but I can't figure it out. I dimmed them one by one and it is still rendering one solid burned out color. I have a sphere with a vex decal set to blue and it renders out solid bright blue.

I might need a detailed explanation because i've looked all over the interface and searched in the textport for some kind of command.

the hdri/lightgen for dummies should do.

Thanks so much!

Hey Foxter,

If I remember correctly, there is a variable that controls the “Dimmer” value. Type Alt+Shift+A or go to Settings -> Aliases and Variables, look under the Variables tab for “dimmer” or something like that. You want to set the value down to 0.01 and go from there.

Cheers!
