Darkening the Shadows

Shadows take a very important part in every scene. They not only indicate the directions of the light, but also create atmospheres in the environment, and emphasize the existence and mass of objects in the 3D scene.

You may combine several features in Character Creator to darken the shadows in order to generate a high contrast type of lighting typically seen at noontime.

Darkening the Shadows

1. Prepare a project with default light. Activate the Shadow option. If the shadow is not very strong, then continue with the following steps.
   
2. Switch to the Atmosphere tab in the Visual Settings panel, and select a darker color for the Ambient Light in the Ambient Light section.
   
3. Select the light in the Scene Manager. Go to the Modify panel and increase the light strength by increasing Multiplier in the Light section.
   
4. Click the Shadow Settings button to increase the shadow Opacity in the Visual Settings panel.
