Subject: Glowing nostrils and ears (with indirect light) PoserPro2010

I searched on Glowing nostrils and found nothing, but i know it's out there. I only get glowing nostrils when I use indirect lighting. V4's nose lights up. I'm not using any specular lights. I have indirect light quality at about 10% other lights in scene at between 10% and 80% intensity. Gamma correction at 2.2

V4 default shaders are self lit, pretending to do what IDL is doing now. You must not use V4 shaders that were designed before IDL.

Also, most shaders have Diffuse_Value = 1, which causes 100% of light to be reflected. This creates an appearance of glow in tight spaces, because the light bounces back and forth, multiplying like a laser.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)

one thing that used to cause nostril glow was too small a shadow map or  a map that covered too large an area. You can check that easily if using ,apped shadows by switching to the lights shadow camera.

Quote - Get VSS

Have VSS, just never had a reason to learn it 'till now. The skin shaders did all have Diffuse=1 and non white diffuse colors. I just "fixed" them all with VSS and glowing nose is gone. Now I can experiment on getting her nice deep tan just right without the glowing body parts
