Thanks for this additional tutorial. I've been stuck at this for 2 week just wondering how to improve. You are always the best. These short tutorials are so easy to learn.
Thanks for your nice tutorial, bro! It helped me learn new things in Blender. I’m also amazed that we can create V-Ray-like lighting in Blender. All credit goes to you. Keep up this great work!
It's been ages since I want to render a night scene like this. At long last I found your video and my mind was simply blown away on how it is done. I just had a struggle with the sun position, then found the solution. It is just a matter of adjusting the UTC. Many thanks!
6:03 light turned dark because your light source was inside of a glass of a ceiling lamp object. You can also get it working again _(without need to move the light source lower)_ by mixing transparent shader with the glass material of ceiling lamp and use "Light Path is Shadow Ray" as its Factor value.
Very underrated channel you can learn and improve yourself just by following your videos and contents. Thank you very much and I sincerely hope that you'll gain more subs and views in the futur ❤
Nice tutorial. Just out of curiosity, what are you computer specs? Your scene looks insanely high quality and realistic even before the few lighting tricks are added in. I'm interested in knowing if there's any other kind of add-on/trick used to get that look or if its simply just good textures and a good pc to render high res shots like that.
Thanks mate! I'm using Hp Zbook 15G4 with Nvidia Quadro card. The models we used here are H.res so that's maybe the reason if you are working on another scene. You can download this scene from the description box or visit the channel for more High resolution assets.
Does this still work the same in 3.4? When I add the sky texture and sun to the sun position addon, the lighting turns into a dark scene with no sun intensity no matter what I do with the settings. I even tried entering your exact values but I don't know whats going on.
Thank you i am a Maya user and im learning and adapting Blender and i been watching so much videos but this was interesting. So these IES can be used in other scene to create that realistic effect like in this example. Are there are site where you can find IES lighting examples and stuff. Thank you.
Thanks for this tutorial… If there is a chance for Volumetric lighting setup also… that would be great! Seeing particulars of dust pass though the glass.
It sounds like light bleeding, which mainly happens in Eevee, you should increase the wall thickness. We did a tutorial on Eevee lighting with light bleed fix so check it out th-cam.com/video/pRUMeaVatdw/w-d-xo.html
No need for that since we linked it to the sky and We can fix its position, intensity and size from the world light. I also didn't have a default light in the scene so the sun we added have a strength of 1 as default value.
Thanks mate,glad it helps. The Glass material is mix with glass node and transparent bsdf ( with light path shadow ray in the factor input). We did make a tutorial on archviz Glass in this channel so check it out, I also shared the entire room model in the descriptions' links so you can download it if you want. hope this help
I have an scene with a small room with 5 windows, when i remove the glass you can see the sun hitting the floor making an square like spot and the scene is also illuminated (maybe a little dark because the windows are small) but when you add the glass almost no light comes trough and i dont know what to do. The glass is more an mirror than actual glass for an window
It appear that your issue is with the glass material, so maybe you're using a raw glass node as an input or a BSDF and that's wrong. Try mixing the glass with a transparent BSDF node and make the factor with a light path shadow rays to make the glass transparent to the sun but showing the reflection from the camera view. We did make a video about Interior Glass node so watch it, it might add something to your knowledge. Hope it help th-cam.com/video/_96X7C-NFkU/w-d-xo.html
Yes it works with both Eevee and Cycles. We did explain it with eevee engine in this video with couple other methods so check it out th-cam.com/video/PXaJ5B5t3e4/w-d-xo.html
@@architecturetopics many thanks for your response. pretty confused as to why i would want an additional sun in a scene with a sky texture but i have found why i got no change and it was blender not taking any coordinates (possible workplace firewall is stopping it). when i enter them manually i see it change.
Because it's not enough, why that? light bounces isn't the same in 3D as in real life, and with less light you get more noise, also the sky texture won't give you the vibe with the light rays dropping on your furniture. We did talk about this topic in the previous Lighting Tutorial, So maybe check it out if you're interested 💙 th-cam.com/video/ouVnkwfRgjo/w-d-xo.html
This did NOT work at all for me. I get a washed out look when I add sky texture and the sun light is completely voided out. I watched this three times over and did exactly as instructed. EDIT: Okay I discovered what was wrong. My model is within a Sphere. This method doesn't work with a sphere. I had to delete the sphere altogether and I still needed to put the "strength" down to .06 to get a decent lighting. I don't really get good definitive sunlight rays but the lighting is fairly decent.
Some of the settings works with both Eevee and Cycles but not all of them, like for example Eevee don't have the Nishita Sky texture and need a different process to fix the light and shadow inside. We did make a tutorial on Eevee lighting so check it out th-cam.com/video/nr1MamBKAec/w-d-xo.html
okay... so blender is broken... I've to put my sun to 200 else, everything is too dark inside and sun position addon does not change anything, even though I've assigned everything.
So let's check couple of things : - Try to hide any glass, windows or curtains and just see if any thing change ( might be a material blocking your light). - once you assign both the Sun and sky in the add-on, stay on solid mode and make sure the sun line is directed on the window's side by changing the numbers in the add-on ( attitude, longitude and Time Zone). - You can open a new scene and with the default cube just make an opening and try the add-on along the Nishita sky and sun to see how it lit the room. -If you think the room should have more light inside you can hide the wall behind the camera while you rendering still shots ( this can add more sky blue color into the scene) Hope this helps.
This blew me away! Not joking when I say my scene went from looking like a doll house to photorealistic quality! Thank you so much for the help!
Glad it help mate! really appreciate it
same in mine case, mind blowing🤯
The sun positioning part was wonderful! I didn’t know I needed it, but now I can’t live without it.

Thank you so much! My render still looks dark in daylight though. How can I make it brighter, like those magazine photos?
Exactly what i need right now!!! Thanks architecture topics, bless you!

Truly high quality, i agree with `3d poly`. U r the best teacher
Thanks! really glad it helps.
Thanks!!!! Wonderful way to set the day light.
Glad you enjoyed it!

I was trying to make a daylight scene with a house but the sky brightness was going through the walls and roof. How do you fix that?
It sounds like light bleeding, which mainly happens in Eevee, you should increase the wall thickness.
We did a tutorial on Eevee lighting with light bleed fix so check it out
th-cam.com/video/pRUMeaVatdw/w-d-xo.html
Do you have a video, where you explains the node purpose of glass material in lamp?
You are the best.
I have a question! Was your sun object left at default settings such as Strength 1000? I never saw you flick to the settings. What was used?
No need for that since we linked it to the sky and We can fix its position, intensity and size from the world light. I also didn't have a default light in the scene so the sun we added have a strength of 1 as default value.
very useful thank you :).
You're tutorials are amazing, very easy to learn. Can u tell me which type of GPU you're using?
Glad it help mate. I think gpu is Nvidia Quadro M1200

se peude hacer esto con un hdri ?
My sun position keeps resetting to 52.5 degrees as soon as I press render, help would be much appreciated.
In the sun position tab, press X on the Sun field to make it empty( night scenes)
@@architecturetopics thank you so much!
what is the sun position supposed to do? does nothing at all in my scene...
match your sun lamp direction with the sky light once you assign them both in the sun position.
@@architecturetopics many thanks for your response. pretty confused as to why i would want an additional sun in a scene with a sky texture but i have found why i got no change and it was blender not taking any coordinates (possible workplace firewall is stopping it). when i enter them manually i see it change.

Tell me, why do you add sun when you have it in NISHITA?
Because it's not enough, why that? light bounces isn't the same in 3D as in real life, and with less light you get more noise, also the sky texture won't give you the vibe with the light rays dropping on your furniture.

Awesome method, so damn useful
This did NOT work at all for me. I get a washed out look when I add sky texture and the sun light is completely voided out. I watched this three times over and did exactly as instructed.
EDIT: Okay I discovered what was wrong. My model is within a Sphere. This method doesn't work with a sphere. I had to delete the sphere altogether and I still needed to put the "strength" down to .06 to get a decent lighting. I don't really get good definitive sunlight rays but the lighting is fairly decent.
Thank you
please crate Tutorial about large scale environment
I'm planning on that, something Post Apocalyptic one maybe. I will try to do it ASAP
@@architecturetopics tanks
Does anybody knows, why when I render the night scene, Bleder automatically render the Day scene?
Try turning off the sun from the sun position add-on, it will switch the attitude back to day value if you keep it assigned there.
i believe that u probably hide some tricks in day-lightning part, cause room lightning is perfect for window source only....
Eres el mejor

Is this possible to do on eevee as well?

how-to-have-nodes-in-Light-point?
5:17 I don't have nodes in light
i found it, i need to render it in cycle
okay... so blender is broken... I've to put my sun to 200 else, everything is too dark inside and sun position addon does not change anything, even though I've assigned everything.
So let's check couple of things :
- Try to hide any glass, windows or curtains and just see if any thing change ( might be a material blocking your light).
- once you assign both the Sun and sky in the add-on, stay on solid mode and make sure the sun line is directed on the window's side by changing the numbers in the add-on ( attitude, longitude and Time Zone).
- You can open a new scene and with the default cube just make an opening and try the add-on along the Nishita sky and sun to see how it lit the room.
-If you think the room should have more light inside you can hide the wall behind the camera while you rendering still shots ( this can add more sky blue color into the scene)
Hope this helps.
How many bounces do you use?
I made the diffuse bounces on 8 , didn't change the other values.
theres no sun light addon in my preferences
you should enable it from the add-ons it's built in blender but off by default

so this is a bad normal day vid. the 2nd window had a bad normal that you corrected in the latest vid.
