Reflection probes volumes

Proxy volume
Influence volume

The influence volume defines which pixels will use the lighting from this probe.

img

Blend influence volume

The blend influence volume defines a blending distance from the influence volume and weight the influence of the probe accordingly.

Commonly use to fade the influence between multiple probes.

img

Blend normal influence volume

A pixel outside of the blend normal influence volume will received a blended influence from the probe.

If this pixel has a normal pointing outwards the capture position, it won’t receive any influence from this probe.

FAQ

My planar probe does not reflect anything.

Follow these steps:

  1. Is the influence volume correct? It should overlap with the reflecting objects.
  2. Is the mirror plane properly placed? The mirror plane should be placed on your reflecting surface and the normal of the mirror plane must be parallel with the normal of the reflecting surface. Try editing its position and rotation with the toolbar in the Planar Probe’s inspector.
