best way to illumincate a room?

[johnallen]

Hi Roobert,

Thanks for your helpful reply.

I tried the settings you gave which illuminated the ceiling nicely.

I also wanted to illuminate the walls so I didn't disable the headlight which worked ok however even the default (maximum?) light 'spread' of 180 didn't illuminate the side walls very much so I also tried adding individual light sources to illuminate each wall (and disabled the headlight)

I was a bit confused at the beginning with the position/euler settings for these directional lights - this is what I ended up with:

euler=(0,0,0) for all lights
position = (1,0,0,); (-1,0,0,0); (0,0,1,0), (0,0,-1,0)

... for the 4 separate lights. (set color & ambient for each too, as desired)

cheers,
John
