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
