Support Materials and Textures

Hey , i’m making an office building .
Therefore i need some help. There are several TL - lamp’s in the building ( like 30 )

So how to make the tube of the TL lamp himself really give the light a real tl lamp does in real life aswel so it looks like the tl lamp really gives the light and gives enough light.

In the attachment image you see how the tl lamp is looking like ( sort of ) . So it’s verry important people really think the llight really comes from the tl lamp himself . And ofcourse giving enough light.

well i did one by simulating it with 2 lamps inside
but you could also use an area light but you cannot set the angle for area light i think

now if you really want to be precise you could load the IES data and use yafaray to simualte a fluo pattern precisely which can use IES data file

anyhow let us know waht you want to do here

salutations
