How to change the color of the sunlight?

[Furumaru]

Hi

How can i change the color of the sunlight? Like red for a daybreak scene or something. Changes the color automatically by the angle and hight of the sun in Blender? Excuse my english but i'm from Germany.

Another question:

Why get my pictures always a red touch if i render with sunlight? I leave all settings in the blender exporter at the default values, i only disabled bidirectional.

Change White balance from D75 to E. That way you will get much better color results.

Thank you mate, i will try this.

Also it depends on the angle (height) of the sun. A lower sun will be more of a burnt orange because it's coming from the horizon. Notice this image; you can clearly see the gradient.:

Heya Furumaru,

you can change the color trough the turbidity setting. Take a
look at those links:

• ► A Practical Analytic Model for Daylight - Images and Values
  ► SoDa:: Services for Professionals in Solar Energy and Radiation - Let's get some values for your location
  └─ start the "Monthly Values of Linke Turbidity Factor" Applet and get started

I hope this is useful.


take care
