Component Types

Choosing the Right Light

Each of Sceneri’s light components serves a unique purpose, and selecting the right type of light for your scene is crucial for achieving the desired atmosphere. Here’s how to choose the best light component for different situations:

• Directional Light: Use for large-scale lighting like sunlight or moonlight. It provides even lighting across a wide area and is essential for outdoor environments.
• Environment Light: Best for creating soft, global illumination that prevents harsh shadows, perfect for indoor environments or for simulating overcast skies or diffused daylight.
• Point Light: Ideal for small, localized light sources like lamps or candles. Use when you need to illuminate a specific area or object with fall-off.
• Spot Light: Use when you need focused light, such as for a flashlight effect, stage lighting, or highlighting specific objects in the scene.

Summary

Sceneri’s light components give developers the flexibility to craft dynamic, realistic, and visually engaging environments. By using Directional, Environment, Point, and Spot Lights effectively, you can create a variety of lighting effects that enhance the mood, direct player attention, and improve the overall visual quality of your game. Experiment with different light combinations and properties to bring your scene to life.
