This section contains information about the lighting components in V-Ray for Grasshopper. 


Overview


The Lighting tab displays all the V-Ray lights components. They are the following: V-Ray Light Rig Dome, V-Ray Light Rig Simple, V-Ray Light Rig Sun System, V-Ray Dome Light, V-Ray Light Directional, V-Ray Light IES, V-Ray Light Mesh, V-Ray Light Omni, V-Ray Light Rectangle, V-Ray Light Sphere, V-Ray Light Spot and V-Ray Light Sun.

Note that all lights attached to the V-Ray Render component are exported through the Render in Project component if connected.





Example: Default Light

To disable the environment, connect an Environment component with black GI to the V-Ray Render component.

To disable the light, connect a new lighting component or a Rig Dome component with disabled “Light On” parameter to the V-Ray Render component.
