714 Chapter 20: Managing Scenes and Projects
R end er O ccluded Obj e cts —
Allows special effects
to affect objects in the scene that are occluded by
this object. The special effects, typically applied by
plug-ins (page 3–1089) such as Glow (page 3–222) ,
use
G-Buffer (page 3–1040) layers to access
occluded objects. Turning on this control makes
the object transparent for the pur p oses of special
effects. This makes no difference when you render
to most image files. When you render to either
the
RLA (page 3–680) or RPF (page 3–681) file
format, however, occluded objects appear with the
effect applied on their designated G-buffer layer.
Motion Blur group
Controls motion blur for objects on the selected
layer.
Multiplier—Affects the length of the motion blur
streak.
Enabled—When on, enables motion blur for
this object. When off, motion blur is disabled
regardless of the other blur settings. Default=on.
None—Tu r ns of f the state of mot ion blur for
objects on the selected layer.
Object— Object motion blur (page 3–1075)
provides a t ime-slice blur effect for objects on the
selected layer.
Image— Image motion blur (page 3–1049) blurs
the image of each object on the selected layer,
based on the velocity of each pixel.
Adv. Lighting panel
Radiosit y Properties group
Exclude fr om R adiosity Processing—When on,
objects on a selected lay er are included in the
radiosity s olution. Objects
not included in the
radiosity solution do not contribute to indirect
illumination. If these objects are lights, their direct
contribution will only be used for rendering.
Note: This has the same functionality as the
Radiosity toggle i n the Layer List.
Cast Sh ad ow s—Determines whether objects on the
selected layer wil l cast shadows.
Receive Illumination—Determines whether objects
on the selected layer w i ll receive i llumination.
Diffuse (reflective & translucent)—When on, objects
on the selected layer are treated as diffuse (rough)
in the radiosity pro cess.
Specular (reflective & transparent)—When on,
objects on a selected laye r a re treated as specular
(smooth) in the radiosity process.
Exclude fr om R ega ther ing—When on, objects on a
selected layer are excluded from the regathering
process of the radiosity s olution.
