I’ve looking into some lighting stuff and I’m curious to know what
kind of lighting parameters people usually use when creating POV renderings.
The settings I could come up with are:
Global:
- Ambient Light Color
For each light:
- Light Position
- Light Color
- Light Attenuation
Directional Lights also have:
- Target Position
- Spot Cutoff (the angle of the spread of the cone)
Are there other useful options I’m missing?

I now forego point lights in favour of area lights - usually 3, each with a 4x4
grid of lights. I find it gives nice soft shadows without the sort of washed out
look that a sky sphere gives, and you can control which parts of the model get
light better.
See here for an
example.
Cheers,
Allister
