Now in Chapter Two of this course, we looked at how the sunlight tool in V-Ray can be used to create a physically accurate daylight simulation given that it has been designed to create the same level of illumination, the same virtual energy output as the real sun and sky. In simple terms then, this is a very, very bright light source inside of V-Ray. In fact, if we were to render a…
