here is a simple sample using lights in cars, red for rear ones and white for headlights.

It's a pitty we haven't still the posibility of emisive material in headlights... maybe in a future.

This kind of lighting are place manually, so it can't be used in animations I guess... I'll think in a tip if I can find to do it... :D

I agree Lofts, this would be fantastic!  and I'm assuming here a feature that could easily be added in an upgrade soonish!

How about the ability to "nest" the lights into the car object?

Or just rebuild the vehicles with lights inside, with "on/off" function.

That would be the best solution.

}) It will be great and Lumion engineers have the potential to realize that, like day and night in sun height scene

Grouping objects is on the wish list. This would be great for attaching lights to cars or lampposts for example.

How did you apply the tail lights to the car? A red omni light? And how did you get the material on the car where the tail light is to glow red?

If the car is an imported model then the tail lights surface can have their material changed in Lumion, increasing the Emissive of the Standard Material or Overbright for color values.

If the car is a Lumion Library Object, then you cannot change surface materials other than overall color, so lights need to be added.  This is more suited to static views only.

The other option is to make and add a model so that the surface can be added near the tail lights and adjusted, as billy007nh has mentioned  in reply your same question other topic: Night Rendering

For just adding lights you can just add two spot lights, narrow the Cone Angle and point to the area of the tail lights.  The dark (no Overbright) car works best as no light cast was noticeable so for the light colored car the spotlights needed adjusting inwards.
