why does this neon not emit light?

place the test result

look I gave you a fast file to see the problem, but I have already tried to put it in a dark dark environment pesto and with white light, me the result is that I see the body of color, but I do not see effect of the light that propagates in the environment, soppratutto that touches the other surfaces, mintra I clearly remember that in the 2010 version I could, even in 2011 before the passage to windows 7.

the light effect does not propagate in the absence of a support, air, water or surface.
then creates a plan to make the irraggimanento "support" and uses dark environments, darker if the light is dark too.
I'll tie you up a couple of times.

@reggio, at the moment I am taken, the answer needs a little time, but I promise you that in the next days we will face the theme. :finger:

Okay, you know, I was expecting something better.

Okay, you know, I was expecting something better.

as mike says, you need to adjust all the surrounding environments to see the light effect.
I send you my file so you can see the settings.
However I also use autocad.
In my opinion, the latter is superior to rendering, with regard to ambient lighting.
If you can do it with autocad... then maybe I'll give you an example.

for that you should put a light at the light source.
solidworks has all the tools for this purpose.

I knew that I had a limit of 8 lights, I needed a dozen:biggrin:, I was looking for new ways, thanks for your explanations:finger:
