The UltraLight is a procedural softbox/light source building tool aimed at high-quality and ultra-realistic renders and studio quality lighting. Create lights of any shape or style with one simple tool!


UltraLight combines native Unreal Engine light sources with a customizable and texturable emissive plane that includes a full range of procedural gradient tools and a built-in gobo system, and optional light geometry shapes. It is the most versatile and high-quality cinematic lighting tool available. Make lights of any shape or style, separate light sources from reflections for the ultimate control over the look and feel of your scenes, and match the cinematic quality of professional studios.


Based on real-world photographic tools and 30+ years of professional photographic and CG lighting/rendering experience, UltraLight was originally developed as an in-house tool at Heavy Artillery Studios and is being shared now for the first time.


Project includes a lighting demonstration level with multiple lighting scenarios. All models are free to use in your own projects.

기술적 세부사항

Features:

  • Integrated native Unreal lights (Rect Light, Spot Light, and Point Light. )
  • Light Plane: fully procedural softbox generator
  • Built-in geometry for common softbox shapes (rectangular, octo, hex, and round) with organic deformation versions for extra realism. (8 shapes total)
  • Use your own custom texture maps.
  • Fully adjustable scale, tiling, rotation, blurring
  • Color & contrast controls
  • Integrated Procedural Tools include:
  • Linear & radial gradients
  • Overlay noise texture
  • Cropping/Frame gradients
  • Look-at/Light targeting
  • Gobo/cookie system to further craft light and generate incredibly detailed shadow patterns
  • All parameters are fully animatable.
  • Works with the real-time engine and Path Tracer, Lumen, and ray-tracing
  • Uses no external plug-ins and leverages built-in Unreal tools, so it should work for almost any version of Unreal Engine and be highly future-proof!

Important/Additional Notes: This tool is primarily designed for cinematics and high-quality offline rendering. It is optimized for quality, over performance. However, by disabling the lightplane and geometry shell it can be used as basic Unreal lights, or anywhere in between so optimization is very easy.
