Creating Natural Lighting in Unreal Engine: A Step-by-Step Guide 

I love that you show there is no secret tool, no checkbox that makes it all work. Just a clever use of the basic tools, taste and practice. Very useful tutorial, even if just to compare approaches to lighting in UE :)

Thank you very much for dropping this 26 minute knowledge bomb. My lighting skills have now improved 1,000%.

broddy has amazing knowledge with lighting the community fucks with you broddy....

Thanks for such a generous and succinct rundown of environment lighting in UE. It took me many months to learn comparable methods in C4D without this kind of guidance.

I have been waiting for this tutorial for YEARS , Bro thank you So Much Mr karim Baraka Allahu Fik

Thanks so much for these guides, they are incredibly helpful. Would love to see more of these with different lighting scenarios. Keep it up!

What a timing. I was up to start working on environment that has this kind of mood. You are the legend!

Omg, impressive! The tutor I was looking for! Thank you and congratulations for your work!

Thank you very much, we had lighting classes with exactly this map, but you streamlined the process so good. Thanks for that :)

Brilliant as always. Thank you for this really valuable insight, Karim.

This Is Some Industry Level Stuff 🛐 Thankyou ❤

Unreals real grey is not 0.5 of white but 0.18 - you can read docs about it.

Love you man!

Amazed by this no pre learned steps but rather doing it live along with us just awesome !!

amazing work. i want to do this also, what gpu you are using?

Amazing👍👍

cool trick with light blocking! thanks

شكرا كريم درس جميل كعادة

Lovely thank you

Muito top. Essa é a iluminação que quero para o meu jogo.

Good Job!!!!!

Woww❤

Very cool as always, thanks so much Karim! One quick question - why such extreme HDRi intensity values are used and then cut by Post Processing? I suppose it may reduce noise in the shadows, but I noticed, that such settings makes the brightness of SFX textures with luminocity look incredibly low (for example all of the niagara effect packs like e.g. fire, magic particles, etc).

This is amazing. Thank you so much for such a detailed and high quality tutorial. I really appriciate it

Yo Karim, amazing content brother! what's the microphone you are recording with?

sweet lordie this is helpful thank you til HDRI

OMG🔥🔥 God Rays process is the Best.I had never seen it before. Thank you So much brother..... Can you please make a special video about god rays? And Lighting is realistic...

عظيم

Its Really great to see the light mode, need some tip or tutorial, if we shoot from interior to exterior then what need to be done in interior light setting.

bravo

Thank you Karim! You have great eye for these things! I would like to save this video into my "Git Gud" list of videos regarding Unreal Cinematics but I can't. Could you please turn on the option to do so? Thank you again

Thankyou😍😍

thanks for the tutorial, any links for those HDR images that you used?

good tips thank you, can you please advise what can I do so I can make neon cool light with this together and it won't cause to much in optimization side (since separate light require crazy intensity to be seen)

please do more lighting tutorials

hay can you also make a Video on Natural Interior Lighting ? it would be really helpfull

Okay 👌🏼

7:54 wow that happened! :)

太冷了！

Nice - Would it be possible to get similar natural result without the HDRI Backdrop, but instead with Real Time Capture enabled in Skylight + Atmosphere actor. What I want to ask is - does Skylight alone (without a cube-map but with Real Time Capture enabled) capture in high dynamic range or does it capture in a normal dynamic range? Cheers

For your light block a small tip: you dont have to put masked material on it, you can check in details "actor hidden in game" + "hidden shadow", you can see in editor where u place it but it won't be visible in render or game!

This is gold dust, my friend. What's the technique of going from dark to light called?

again... help me :) THX bro

Great tutorial! One question though. Shouldn't middle gray have a value of 0.18 instead of 0.5?

what is the reason behind increasing all the light values so much? Do they behave differently at different scales?

Hi, can you make a tutorial how make this nice ground?

Im using ultra dynamic sky. Maybe show use that and modify

Where you were creating opacity masks with cubes that seems to only affect static meshes. I tried doing that to create flags for meta humans but they appear to still be lit by the lights behind them any tips?

Hello friend, thank you for this video ! I don't get the same result at all with HDR BackDrop if I follow the video to the letter. If I leave the skilight intensity at 600 it burns, I have to go down to 10 so that it matches your image at time 03:30 of the video. Is there a parameter to change in the project? In your opinion, is it possible to achieve a similar result using UDS ? Regards

That voice crack tho 😅😂

are these steps will effect the FPS if its used for a game ?

Why does the light disappear from all the bulbs after adding HDRIBackdrop? How can I fix it?

Why aren't you using the filmic tonemapper?

is thair way that i can compress all the thing in blue print and put one in the world ,and expossing limted perameters that i need and play with them rather then putting all the thing again again

Hello, your tutorial is very useful, I follow your tutorial step by step and its work fine awesome result but i have a problem with point light and emissive light they aren't work . how can I fix this issue I m using GTX 1660 super , I don't have RTX Card , can you plz help me for how to solve this issue or any one who knows thanks for this great tutorial

halu,This tutorial is Cool. but I have some problems. When I use the mask material, there is no projection on the ground. UE5.3.thanks

Hello, thank you for your excellent tutorial, but I have encountered a tricky problem. I set the Min EV100 and Max EV100 values in Post to 10, but the scene lighting exposure is still very severe. It takes until it is set to 300 or above for the lighting to decrease. May I ask where I did not set it correctly? Why do you only need 10 to solve the lighting exposure problem? My version is UE5.4.1 and I hope to receive your help. Thank you

What’s the name of the scene? Where can I download it? Can you share please? )
