Lights

Lights are used to illuminate scenes.

Foxel provides three light types:

• Point Light
• Spot Light
• Directional Light

Point Light

A Point Light emits light in all directions from a single point.

It is useful for local light sources such as lamps, bulbs, or small glowing objects.

Properties

Color	Defines the color of the emitted light.
Intensity	Defines the brightness of the light.
Range	Defines how far the light reaches.
Cast Shadows	Enables or disables shadow casting.
Shadow Bias	Adjusts the shadow offset to reduce artifacts.

Spot Light

A Spot Light emits light in a cone.

It is useful when you want to direct light at a specific area or object.

Properties

Color	Defines the color of the emitted light.
Intensity	Defines the brightness of the light.
Range	Defines how far the light reaches.
Spot Angle	Defines the width of the light cone.
Spot Blend	Defines the softness of the cone edge.
Cast Shadows	Enables or disables shadow casting.
Shadow Bias	Adjusts the shadow offset to reduce artifacts.

Directional Light

A Directional Light emits parallel light rays across the scene.

It is useful for broad lighting, such as simulating sunlight.

Properties

Color	Defines the color of the emitted light.
Intensity	Defines the brightness of the light.

INFO

In Foxel, only the sun can act as a shadow-casting directional light. Additional Directional Lights do not cast shadows.
