Blender object not using ambient light

[pspeed]

Yeah, this thread wasn’t in the search when I checked. And you get more results with “light probe” instead of “LightProbe” but I don’t know if they are better results.

You can find a default set of prebuilt LightProbe j3o files in this post:

[SOLVED] Model Blender Modifiers doesn't work

I thought metalness would have to be 1 for it to not show up at all under directional light or something. Otherwise you will see some color. But anyway, a probe will be needed regardless. There are a bunch of premade probes here that I use all the time: Thumbnails to go with them: I think some of these may already be available in JME data somewhere.

And I posted a code snippet that will load one here:

Seeking documentation for light probes

It is a bit like passed down lore at this point so a wiki page would be awesome. I will contribute how I load a presaved light probe from my general set. First: Spatial probeHolder = getApplication().getAssetManager().loadModel(probeName); LightProbe probe = (LightProbe)probeHolder.getLocalLightList().get(0); probe.setPosition(Vector3f.ZERO); probeHolder.removeLight(probe); Which prepares “probe” to be used more generally. Then rootNode.addLight(probe) or …

But that whole thread may have the questions you may have about your next steps (like if you decide you want to generate a probe specific to your scene or something).
