Lightsources don't work!

Hello,

 

I created a spot light and an area light, but they don't affect the scene at all, why?

Only directional light works.

 

Help please.

The thing is that when I create lightsource (and all other objects) they appear to be very small, and I enlarge them like 10 times.

I fount out that when I increase the size of the lightsource - light from the lightsource doesn't increasing.

How to fix it?

If I set intensity to 64k it appears to show light, however arealight still doesn't work.

 

Help please.

Hi!

 

"appear to be very small"

Reset Maya units and grid.

 

"light from the lightsource doesn't increasing"

See my first reply "Normalize".

 

"If I set intensity to 64k it appears to show light, however arealight still doesn't work"

Increase more  or change scene-scale (object scale).

 

Please read the Maya Online Help / Documentation and Arnold for Maya User Guide for more details.
