Different outcome with the same settings

Post by swissdude »

Hi to the Group, has beena while - i am happy with the Software :)

One thing i cant get right, i have LED lights under an angle that should shine down the wall.

The same color light is the same material - so the same settings.

also the hardware is the same, size, dimensions... but the outcome is wierd.

I would like the soft fade as on the small wall to the front.

Thansk for any hints, Patrick

the led lights on the left are duplicated, but strips are, so I deleted the duplicates and now it's rendering fine. I'll run some tests for the wall effects...

I think the duplicates are causing the problem and the slow down. The back strip is also duplicated and so is the red one. So I combined all the yellow one into one strip and grouped it, no dups, and the red one is alone too, grouped as well. 2 lights total for the strips and it works much better and faster. I've set the yellow strip to power=200 and unchecked Low Power. After a few minutes, it looks really nice. oh, I've also removed the texture for the front and back faces of the strips and applied the texture to the group instead.

There is also 2 red lights, I can only find one, even after deleting the duplicates. Must be something else textured the same?
