LED Material

[Daniel0213]

Need a material that generates its own light, to simulate an LED strip, for example.

I have been searching the wiki and steam but I have not found anything.

 

As similar I managed to test it by inserting a point light to a model and put the shader emissive material.

 

Attached a picture.

 

Thanks!

Attached a picture.

 

Where?

The goal is getting the emissive material of the LED emits light that is reflected on the walls and floor.

 

Thanks!

1) Increase the light radius ?

2) Not available in LE3 : Use PBR or reflective materials on your walls

The Light solution as you did is the best to keep performance good.

You can't really turn a texture into a light. I would just slap some bloom on there and use an emissive shader:

Thanks Josh and yougroove!!

 

 

Sorry I taken so long to answer, I wanted to attach a screenshot with the final rendering of the building.

 

Currently I am using the engine to design customized outdoor terraces to the clients of the company I work, I'm the technical / designer and have to say that this software does its job really well!

 

I put point light with a small radius throughout LED strip.

 

 

Thank you very much !!

Looks good.....

aren´t that a bit too many lights then? How is the performance?

[Daniel0213]

The perfomance is bad, but I only need a good render. I hope in the future they develop some emissive material (real emissive).

That looks like an expensive render yes.
