Linear light distribution looks wrong

Micha · Aug 19th 2018

Hi,

I remember that we had the same problem for the rectangular lights some months before and than it was fixed. So, the rect light looks now:

Today I tried to use a tube light (Rhino) and the results are looking like the old rect light before optimization:

I hope the tube light can be improved like the rectangular light.

I think it's because the light is not a "tube" - it's a cylinder with filled ends; the ends produce light perpendicular to the actual light source you want, so you get the barbells light distribution.

Hey Micha , we're aware of this and currently busy optimizing and improving our small scale rect light behaviour. Thank you for your feedback and patience.
