So basically I want a light to turn on and off, animating the brightness doesn’t work any more… So how can I tell it to move to an un-rendered layer? Visibility also doesn’t work, I don’t know how to make it hide though…
Start the lamp in a hidden layer and use empties to add it.
Alternatively, there’s an energy (brightness) variable that you can manipulate in Python.
The python would do the same thing as simply animating it, i think… I’ll try he first way.
Editing the brightness via python definitely works for me…
