Field Lighting - Notch Reference Manual

Method

This node adds lighting and self shadowing to fields based on input light nodes. It is used in conjunction with the Field Renderer node (which renders the field volume). Affecting lights need to be connected to Lights input of the Field Lighting node. The Field Lighting node calculates translucent shadows from the field it is applied to on a per-voxel basis.

The node should be parented to a Field Root node.

Example

Transform

Name	Description
Position X	Move its position along the x-axis in local space.
Position Y	Move its position along the y-axis in local space.
Position Z	Move its position along the z-axis in local space.
Rotation Heading	Rotate the object about the y-axis.
Rotation Pitch	Rotate the object about the x-axis.
Rotation Bank	Rotate the object about the z-axis.
Scale X	Scale along the x-axis.
Scale Y	Scale along the y-axis.
Scale Z	Scale along the z-axis.

Inherit Transform Channels

Toggle which transform channels should be inherited. By default, all are on.

Attributes

Name	Description
Shadow Density	Control the density of field, and how much light will be allowed to filter through.

Inputs

Name	Description	Typical Node Input
Lights	Lights that are affecting the field render	Light
Transform Modifier	Links all transform properties to the input node.	Null
Target Node	Always faces the x-axis towards the inputs anchor point.	Null
Local Transform Override	Override the transformation values of the node, relative to its parent.	Null
