    For those of you struggling with extreme overexposure when following along it's because there are actually a number of incorrect values he's displaying in the video. Don't get me wrong, his methodology is incredible and his end result is some of the best lighting I seen but I think there were some setup problems that were missed in the beginning and compensation for incorrect values in post process when everything could have been cleaner. Setting a skylight at 600 is extreme, and setting your exposure min max values anything other than 1 is just setting yourself up for confusion later.
    1) Make sure that you remove all previous lighting and post process volumes that come built into the scene including the clouds, skysphere and skylight.
    2) You don't need to set the intensity of your HDRI to such extreme high values. Setting it beyond 10 in Unreal is really unnecessary. Leaving HDRI intensity and 1, and Skylight Intensity at 1 is perfectly fine, because the real magic is all in the exposure settings.
    3) In exposure set the min and max to 1. You should usually default to this setup: Autoexposure at 1, Min Max at 1, or manual with apply physical camera exposure turned off. This sets everything to be flat and balanced so you can focus on lights that make all the changes.
    4) The HDRI he used imported overexposed, so on the texture asset itself I pulled it down to .1 on the brightness After that I was at the same exposure and similar look to 3:50.
    5) From there I would continue to chop his light intensity values down by a factor of 100. He's setting them so high because his min max is forcing these scene exposure values to be very dark so all other lights must compensate for that.
    6) For the light blocker cube at 17:00 you need to leave it opaque and turn on Hidden shadow and hidden in game in the object details. Otherwise it doesn't really work as a masked object

      the reason his exposure is set to higher values than 1 is he is using real world physical units, which makes things a lot easier to work with when figuring out lighting values for local light sources as everything can be measured and input with real world values, such as a fluorescent tube light at 1500 lumens, and other light sources you can find real world values for and use. this makes lighting a scene a lot simpler than having to eyeball everything and then your lighting relationships are all just made up values when using a low exposure setting of 1, which in reality is used for night time scenes or even negative EV values for night.
      overcast lighting like this would be EV 8-13 depending on sky brightness/time of day, cloud coverage etc. The HDRI appears overexposed at an EV of 1 because the brightness of the HDR captures the actual brightness of the sky and when you adjust to the proper exposure range, you can see the details of the sky. This way, if you have an interior like the houses you can go into, you can set a separate post process for the interior with a real world exposure setting of ~5-7 depending how much light is in there and when you transition, it will appear realistic and correct, with the exterior out the windows being more blown out, just like how a real world camera works.
      if the goal is super realistic lighting, working with real world values for light intensities and measuring them with the HDR eye adaptation view mode where you can see the measured LUX or EV of a surface or light allows you to get correct exposure and light relationships that work properly with each other, like how you cant see a street light in daytime even if it is on, but at night when the sun is down/moonlight they appear much brighter relative to the ambient lighting.
      The hardest part of using physical lighting units is wrapping your head around EV100 and camera exposure values, it took me a while to have it click, but once i did, I always favor using physical units and ev100 exposure properly when I can :) A lot of modern games have transitioned to this workflow, it was followed pretty strictly on the last few COD games, especially for the cinematic campaigns. it is also really useful when developing games that support HDR screens as your brightness values will have a lot more punch to them as there is much more dynamic range from various light sources and the sky etc.

    • @BaazarStudios
      @BaazarStudios 25 днів тому +1

      @@PolygonAcademy While I appreciate those insights and using real world EV values, that's definitely not what's happening in this video. Setting a skylight at 600 intensity isn't emulating any real world light nor are the sunlight values. Since this is a Wild West outdoor scene there are no tube lights or softboxes or emulated LED lights so he's just modelling natural light using arbitrary values and then cancelling them out again using the exposure min max. Since he's not using manual mode or a cinecam modeling ISO and light gain it's really just eyeballing what looks good.
      Regardless of your methodology you want to use the Post process to neutralize any effect it has on scene exposure because you want your lights in the world to the actual work.

    • @PolygonAcademy
      @PolygonAcademy 25 днів тому +1

      @ he sets those values because he has probably tested it before and knows the brightness values to input to get the sky properly exposed for overcast exposure ranges.
      For your point about how he is cranking up the lighting and then compensating with the exposure, yes, and that is a correct workflow for consistency. In the real world when you go outside to take a photo or its bright and sunny, do you compensate for the brightness by adjusting camera settings, or do you decrease the intensity of the sun itself? This workflow mimicks how things work in reality.
      In the exposure he sets it to EV 11 which is the exposure for a late afternoon overcast photo, its locking the exposure at that ev range, another way of doing it besides using manual exposure and dialing camera values in, its simpler rather than having to adjust aperture, iso and shutter speed, but you could set those as well to get the result of ev 11, its just faster and easier to plug in EV settings.
      the sunlight value he uses is physically accurate for overcast sunlight, 1k-2k lux.
      And there are other local lights in the scene, torches and lanterns which could also be properly set to real world values for consistent use over multiple levels and work well in interiors with a ev of 4-6 for interior exterior transitions.
      One thing i do agree with is its weird cranking up the skylight beyond 1, but this is because hdri backdrop separates the sky brightness intensity from skylight intensity/capture and seems a bit broken. I would actually prefer to put the sky material on a seperate dome with an emissive multiplierin the material , and then crank it up while measuring with the hdr eye adaptation modes luminance meter to reach ev 11 and then recapture with standalone skylight actor and leave the value of 1 intensity so it outputs directly from the sky captures brightness and is properly linked, the hdri backdrop is a bit broken with how it doesnt seem to work properly in this instance, but the end results are the same even with arbitrary numbers, as the overall scene exposure matches ev11, as the sky is properly exposed and it looks visually correct. Its just achieving it by multiplying whatever brightness the hdr was captured at by 600 to achieve a luminance of around 10k lux if i was to guess which is about what overcast sky outputs. i agree its a bit of a janky method but thats more on the way hdri backdrop works in this example rather than his knowledge of physical lighting and camera exposure, which is solid for sure.
      Setting exposure to 1/1 and dialling everything down will technically work and look ok on sdr screens but will also lead to having to randomly pick values for your torch lights and other light sources, which unless you can really nail that value relationship will look off if photorealism is the goal, and also using that low intensity of lights will not work nearly as well on HDR displays as there isnt as an larger range of Nits brightness to take advantage off and it will look very flat overall for a game. if you were to take other levels and lighting setups like high noon into account (100k-120k sun lux) as part of the content of a game which should have a pipeline that supports a wide range of lighting scenarios that work consistently

      @@BaazarStudios no worries, I wasnt trying to be agrumentative at all, whatever workflow gets the results your project needs is great, just trying to push more people to dive into physical units as its really becoming industry standard and once you start working that way its really hard to go back as everything just works as it does in reality and makes things easier, just a lot to learn in the beginning.
      Pasquale Scionti has a great tutorial where he also uses physical units and shows his process for lighting it about 1/3rd of the way through this tutorial(6:35): ua-cam.com/video/uAIYiXJ6udw/v-deo.htmlsi=eBguLe9ef0iGUOZp
      and here is another great talk on high level lighting from another principal lighting artist that has a ton of great info in it if you are interested: ua-cam.com/video/TLJ2Fd9tBnQ/v-deo.html
      finally if you want to go a bit deeper, here is a tutorial from the former lighting director at DICE/EA who worked on battlefront 2 explaining physical lighting if you want to go deeper, its in ue4 but the same principals apply to ue5 and all the issues he encountered have been fixed since then: ua-cam.com/video/2ClffNIKIKg/v-deo.html

      yea exactly, you would have to pump up your emissive values to match real world output, you can measure them with the hdr eye adaptation view mode and see the measured lux/EV100 of them and match that to real world info for types of lights you can find online, then everything works exactly the same as in real life, its a bit of a headache at first but once you set it all correctly, your lights work realistically in any lighting scenario and you just set exposure to real world values, takes a lot of the guesswork and eyeballing out of the process :)

    Hello there! I have SkyAtmo in a scene. I dropped your presets into the level tab and am using it in another map. When I go to render in sequencer I get the following error. Would you know what needs to be edited to make this load in the scene using sequencer?
    MoviePipelinePIEExecutor: Warning: Sub-level '/Game/SkyAtmoPro/Maps/Mood' is set to blueprint streaming and will not be visible during a render unless a Sequencer Visibility Track controls its visibility or you have written other code to handle loading it.

      Ok, I figured this out by butting a level visibility track into my sequencer and adding the Mood level to it. Now my exposure in the render is not reflecting the viewport though. I keep changing my exposure settings on the Post Process Volume, but I see no change in the render.

    Nice - Would it be possible to get similar natural result without the HDRI Backdrop, but instead with Real Time Capture enabled in Skylight + Atmosphere actor.
    What I want to ask is - does Skylight alone (without a cube-map but with Real Time Capture enabled) capture in high dynamic range or does it capture in a normal dynamic range?
    Cheers

      yes, you can :) you just need to set your directional value to between 80000-120000 lux and keep skylight intensity at 1 and it should function at proper physical values and if you match the exposure it will work properly. for a setup like this you would also need to add volumetric cloud actor and adjust the cloud coverage in the material to have it add more shadow/absorb light in the scene to get the softer overcast look, and turn on cloud shadows in your directional light options. sky atmosphere will adjust the directional brightness based on the angle of the light, like our atmosphere does, so you set it to the most powerful value we normally get at high noon as your max value (80000-120000 lux) and as the sun goes down it gets less intense as the atmosphere absorbs more of the light output.

    Where you were creating opacity masks with cubes that seems to only affect static meshes. I tried doing that to create flags for meta humans but they appear to still be lit by the lights behind them any tips?
