The reason why you need the light blockers outside your room is because how the Mesh Distance Fields work. Basically, if the wall mesh is exposed to light on one side, then also the other side would still be lit even if it's in an otherwise closed dark room. So you should create a wall for the interior of your room and one for the exterior. Also, you can add invisible light blockers that would be visible in the Lumen Scene debug mode but invisible in the scene. Just look for "hidden" and select "influence Lumen lighting when hidden". Then also select Hidden in Game so it it won't be visible! Don't forget to turn collisions off or you might wonder why your character is not hitting the visible wall properly.
noob question, why doesn't creating a wall automatically handle this in unreal engine? Seems like a nice quality of life improvement? Or is it that unreal doesn't know if it's a wall or a table or a cloth or a transparent texture?
@@DivjotSingh Lumen tries its best, but your options are to crank up the quality or to do the more performance friendly option and try to over compensate and reinforce the walls. Light leaks are pretty common regardless of lighting method.
What if it's part of explorable open world and you can see walls when going outside? Is there an option to render these walls invinsible visually, but still catching the light?
I imagine these videos take a while to make/edit etc... that being said they are always a joy to watch. I would love to see more in the future, heck if you ever have a lighting course on gumroad...

hi good to see you back i am just refreshing my youtube home page over and over every week to see if there is a new tutorial on your channel love your work and attituded thank you so much
Great video, Will! Thanks for that! Not going to lie though, I was hoping for more use out of Path Tracer. I would love to see it being used more in your videos, as I don't see a lot of love for it in general, nor do I see a whole lot of development support for it. It's a quintessential tool for those of us using Unreal for more traditional Visual Effects, but there's numerous, sometimes nearly-dealbreaking, limitations (like the one about it not supporting Nanite Displacement) and I would love to hear workarounds, tips, console commands, and processes that creatives who are more vetted use in their everyday workflows. Anyways, thanks again! Hope to see more Path Tracer in the future! 🙏
Than you very much, I have a really hard time understanding how to set up and scene, not to mention how to light it up, so all your videos (which have been recommanded to me on social media), are really helpul. I'm gonna download the project, rewatch the video, and follow along to have a better grasp at what you explained.
Once again William for the win and great tutorial. You helped me in my career in a major way. Your Tutorials are so impactful to many people. In my case you have helped shape my career. Thank you.
Thanks a lot, Willian! Your videos not only very informative for me, but sometimes give unexpectable answers to questions that have remained unanswered for a long time :)
My first project using Unreal is a reconstruction of a 4th century Roman bath. I had assumed that, like a path tracer, I could illuminate the interior using only the sun and skybox. Nope. For someone used to the relative simplicity of path traced renderers, working with Lumen GI can be a frustrating process. Thanks for the help!
whoa whoa whoa. incredible. Thank you very much for this analysis of lighting maybe you could do a breakdown of this scene on how to create such a cool environment? analysis of materials, decals, puddles?
Step 1: pick a theme, look at references,make a moodboard(PURE Ref to keep them all in as a board) take a paper draw the idea you have in mind only using shapes and figure out composition of your scene. Likee oooh I wanna make a GoT inspired scene with a man prepping himself to fight a huge dragon. Step2 unreal engine: Use environment light mixer to create basic lighting. Use cubes and other primitive shapes from place actors tab, to whitebox/greybox the composition u laid out in pen and paper until u reach something u like. Now add a camera to your scene, switch to cinecamera actor, move the camera around until your composition fits the camera. Lock it by right clicking it so it doesn't move when u roam around the scene. Now, instead of jumping into texturing, light out your scene, make a post process volume from place actors u need to search it. Literally play around with settings until u find something good. I recommend starting off with lumen only ABSOLUTELY no raytracing you'll be learning and slow load times will be hassle and do +20 DMG to your will go work. Step3: texturing P.S: Don't download at the highest texture details or NANITE. it's gonna blow up the quality and moving around the scene will be slow. Use, quixel mixer, megascans, and bridge. I'd recommend looking at unreal engine + mixer in UA-cam search Step4: Details Now you're gonna jump into the most fun part making your environment more lived in, use decals from bridge to damage, or add steet graffiti etc into your scene. Use small rocks , flying birds, fog cards. And that's it you're done, good job 🎉
I have a question: at 16:32 minute, lighting with torches is shown. Why do torches give the same light as light bulbs? Shouldn't that light be variable and "floating"? All that is fine, but the key thing is missing and that light is very "artificial".
What do you mean by the key thing? Emissive materials emit light in UE5, but they are such low resolution that you need to assist it with actual point lights.
@@WilliamFaucher Maybe I expressed myself badly. First let me say that I am an amateur. I thought if fire was used as a light, there would already be automatic lighting for it, and fluctuations in lighting in all directions as the flame changes. When they introduced the 3D models of fire and smoke, I thought they simulated fire, introduced both "light" and "darker" parts of the fire so that the fire itself sends light around itself - just like a real fire. Does it exist in the engine? If you assist them generally with point lighting, but those fluctuations are done how? Thank you for your time and response
@@jovanpejic That is correct. Emissive materials (the fire) emit light and variations). But It doesnt emit light very far, and even less indirect lighting. So you need to help it out with point lights. It is a combination of both.
Tbh what you see in the beginning with Lumen is exactly how the scene would look in real life: Not much light is coming in. What you did is an unrealistic scene, like they often do in movies. If one looks closely one can see the entrance is actually a huge light that would never happen like this in real life.
Another fantastic video! This is unrelated but do you know how to make MH hair simulations not flicker in the MRQ? This one has stumped my team for the last few weeks.
No. I only use hardware raytracing on the lights that need it in this video, because hardware raytracing has a lot of side effects that aren't always good when combined with Lumen. :)
@@WilliamFaucher maybe it is specific for your project. I made a bedroom and to achieve the same shadoes as path tracing mode i had to enable rt shadows in the project settings. Without it it looks weird, like there is no shadows at all 😀. Ok there are shadows but not the little ones, like screen space shadows would be. Anyway, thanks for the video. And please make more videos on unreal engine.
I could really use a video that is for beginners. It's taken me a half an hour just to do the steps through the 4 minute mark. Then at 4:05, you show disabling the lighting, but I can't find this at all. I found how to open Levels, but I can't find out how all those lighting levels appear, even after searching. I'm going to have to bail on this video, as I simply can't move forward with the lighting still on. Got any suggestions for a simpler video? (I've got over 20 years in theatrical lighting as a background, so it's not what lighting is needed to make it look crazy good, it's how to make UE5 do what I already know how to do IRL.)
So similar to vray when i first used it. Interior rendering request a rectange vray light in the window even though there was vray sun and HDRI in the scene.
gotta love those boosts on "diffuse" and "bounced lights" i sorely miss since corona...also the reflection boost in red shift.. this physical accuracy thing should be an option not a rule :)
This is great, William! My EHF volumetric light floods the scene completely and if i increase the 'volume scattering intensity', this affects the whole scene, not only the 'beam' of light. In Path Tracing it works as it should, weird.
Hey William, will you make a video on how you setup a fresh laptop/ desktop for your work, with unreal engine and other 3d work? It would mean a lot to me!
@@WilliamFaucher Oh sorry for that, I just meant, I've heard and seen many people having separate drives for cache, projects and etc. I'm quite new so I wasn't sure what to do to reduce storage clutter, or how to manage it at least.
"Cast Ray Traced Shadowns" It is not possible to click and change this function because it is disabled saying that it is defined by the project settings, but I don't know where to change it. can you help me?
Wow man, you are not just a UA-camr that shares content or do “tutorials”, you are a teacher Man. Thank you very much Will, I learned a LOT from you, God bless you
I had the light bleeding issues at corners before . Blocking it with cubes is fine if the camera never leaves the building. But how to solve this when the camera goes outside and wants to display the house?
Any tips for dealing with those lovely blurry reflections on your floor? and how to eliminate noise from artificial lights. Anything around 0.2 roughness seems to cause issues?
Here is something you might be able to help with. Why am I seeing flickering in the glass bottles I have on a shelf when rendering? None of the lights are moving and nothing in the scene is moving. However, there are little light reflections that are bouncing around in the render. Any ideas? I have searched everywhere I can think of.
Hi William thanks for the video. Not sure if you’ve covered this before but how can we get rid of the flicker happening in puddle reflections seen in the end of your video here. I’ve noticed many unreal renders have this and i have had this too. Is this something that can be remedied? Thanks again!
Thanks, lots of good help here. Still frustrating with UE that were at 5.3 now and you still have to put giant fake walls around your real walls just so light doesn't bleed through completely closed in sections. Come on Unreal fix your bugs.
They're all megascans, I'm not sure I can specifically link to things in bridge as it is built into UE5. Besides, I'm using quite a few, would take me a while.
Hi William I apologize for using a translator I want an object not to be seen in rendering, but the shadow cast on it is rendered. Is this possible? I turn on the cast shadow option and turn off the visible option, but it does not work
HI, in my scene the viewport isn't responding to (intesity scale on sky light and exposure slider on post process volume) however the render and small viewport when we select the camera are beign effected, Is there a way see the changes in viewport? I'm also using pilot actor: cinecamera actor but sill same thing.
I have a question on lighting that has been difficult for me to figure out. Sobased off of what I’ve seen personally, there seems to be a visible difference in the quality of light in UE5 depending on if it’s an archviz setup(from the starting menu) versus a 3rd person or 1st person game mode. Can you confirm? In the description of the archviz template, it says it’s set up to imitate true light from the sun. I’m assuming that means it’s different than other modes. Any help you can give would be super appreciated!
Yes. Big difference, because they all have different project settings. Game builds are optimized for games usage, you can override these and scalability settings in your project.
@@WilliamFaucher you’re the best sir! And your video is so good, that despite having lived in UE5 for the last year for viz projects, I’m literally going through you tutorial and making detailed notes because there’s just so much good stuff.
Hello one question. How can I configure a camera to be able to make an animation and Zoom to a target and return to the initial state. I must add this Zoom in Keyframes to a sequence.
Fantastic! :) About flickering in water or high reflective surfaces. Seems it only occurs when using a normal map? Is there a work around or is this just limitations? I notice you have some flicker in the floor tiles where the skylight reflects, but its faaar from as massive as i get. I've tried to work with lumen reflection settings but that does not seem to do the trick. Was wondering if you have any idea how about that :)
Thanks a lot William, really awesome !! Just a question because I'm having issues with rendering sometimes, as you can see there is light/reflections flickering in Lumen ! How can I fix it in rendering ? Would really appreciate you if you can help me about it. 🙌
You can attenuate this issues changing the lumen configuration in post process volume in "Lumen Global Illumination" and "Advanced". Another tip is always put more lights in the scene if this problem occurs.
The reason why you need the light blockers outside your room is because how the Mesh Distance Fields work. Basically, if the wall mesh is exposed to light on one side, then also the other side would still be lit even if it's in an otherwise closed dark room.

@@DivjotSingh Lumen tries its best, but your options are to crank up the quality or to do the more performance friendly option and try to over compensate and reinforce the walls. Light leaks are pretty common regardless of lighting method.
Can I use one plane as the interior wall and another plane as the exterior wall? Or does the wall have to have thickness?
@@pietlebrun5943 Use boxes or solid airtight geometry. Planes don't work well.
What if it's part of explorable open world and you can see walls when going outside? Is there an option to render these walls invinsible visually, but still catching the light?

Great tip about Lumen Albedo Boost. If I'm not mistaken, you can turn meshes to 2-sided in order to prevent light leakage.

In the PPV under Lumen, there is a parameter for Skulight Leaking set to 0. What is that doing do help get rid of light bleeding/leaking?
Is that default color space or aces CG ?
I had the light bleeding issues at corners before . Blocking it with cubes is fine if the camera never leaves the building. But how to solve this when the camera goes outside and wants to display the house?
You can trigger volumes to load/unload them
You can also set them up as an invisible shadow caster. There is an option called 'shadow only', in the mesh option panel. if I remember correctly.
Thanks for both answers!

How do you find Studio drivers a lot more reliable? What data do you base your opinion on?
Personal experience throughout my career. Pretty much never had driver related issues with my GPUs.
can you add a link to assets that you are using?
They're all megascans, I'm not sure I can specifically link to things in bridge as it is built into UE5. Besides, I'm using quite a few, would take me a while.

I've tried to work with lumen reflection settings but that does not seem to do the trick. Was wondering if you have any idea how about that :)
Thanks a lot William, really awesome !!
Just a question because I'm having issues with rendering sometimes, as you can see there is light/reflections flickering in Lumen ! How can I fix it in rendering ?
Would really appreciate you if you can help me about it. 🙌
You can attenuate this issues changing the lumen configuration in post process volume in "Lumen Global Illumination" and "Advanced". Another tip is always put more lights in the scene if this problem occurs.
