Creating Blaze 3D Light Maps |
- Holomatix light maps can be created by converting standard high dynamic range light maps (.hdr files) through a tool provided within the Studio. This is available by right-clicking Light Environment in the Project Explorer, and selecting Conversion > HDR to HDX.
- The .hdr file must be in either vertical cross or spherical format in order for an .hdx file to be successfully generated. This process is a one off activity but can be time intensive for high resolution light maps. Once generated, these .hdx files can then be referenced and loaded into any project.
- Please save these .hdx files in either your Lighting Environment Library path defined through the Tools > Preferences window (for example "C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\MyBlazeProjects\Lighting Environments") or the current directory of the project.
