3Delight for Maya has a unique and very powerful feature that enables artist to easily render individual lighting elements of a scene.  This is done simultaneously (in a single render) and does not significantly increase render time. The lighting elements are those that could potentially emit light. The sum of all those elements gives the final image. The following elements can be outputted using this Multi-Light feature:

  • Standard lights
  • Groups of lights
  • Incandescence
  • Environment light

Multi-Light rendering is a fundamental feature of 3Delight and it works for all shading networks. There is no need to insert intermediary utility nodes to your shading networks. Any custom shading nodes you write will automatically support this feature.
