Area Lights
Posted one year ago
There are some things that I want to explore with this feature to make a dessert, but we have a good main dish.

We have some work done already to support projected textures on rectangle lights. It would be really nice to see movie lobbies having their projector reflecting the light of their contents back into the world.

Right now dynamic area lights don't cast dynamic shadows, they look really off having a sharp shadow with a big light. I'm currently rewriting the shadowing system, and that should be remedied soon.
