Description

Unlock full control over EEVEE's indirect lighting! In this video, we reveal a simple yet powerful workaround to extract and control the intensity of ray traced bounced light in Blender's EEVEE render engine - a control that doesn't exist in the official settings.
   • How to Render REALISM in Seconds with EEVE...   - the course trailer
This technique involves rendering your scene with and without ray tracing, then using the "Difference" blend mode to isolate the indirect lighting pass. Once extracted, you can mix it back with full control, allowing you to push EEVEE's visuals (namely, irradiance or global illumination) beyond its default limits.
