Default Scanline Renderer in 5 Easy Steps (For Small Interior Spaces)

Hi guys. Finally, natapos ko din itong default scanline tutorial ko. mga references ko nito ay sina smoke3d at enigma, thank you mga idol ko. hehe. I tried to simply this tutorial para mas mabilis maintindihan at maalala. Marami pang ibang ways to do scanline, and this tutorial is one way. sana magustuhan nyo. ok, lets start!

This tutorial will focus on how to use the 3d studio max default scanline renderer for small interior spaces. for this tutorial, we will be needing a textured interior model. You can download the model here. CLICK ME.



STEP 1 - Add 1 omni light in the middle of your scene, this will serve as your ambient/fill light, you can increase or decrease its value depending on how you wanted your scene being lit. Check the "use" and "show" on your far attenuation, this will dictate the coverage of your fill light. On advance effects rollout, check ambient only.

STEP 2 - Add 16 omni lights, split it into two layers of 8's. I call this "the omni field". This will enhance your shadows. Again, use far attenuation as not to over brighten your scene. In your shadow map params, change the size to 64, this will fade your shadow to a minimum.

STEP 5 - Add an ambiently only omni right below your table to darken the shadow cast by the lights. use a negative value to introduce dark light into the scene. and we're done! Hope you enjoyed the tutorial as I did while doing this. Yay!
