Can we disable sun light on peoples ?
Like a self-illuminated effect, linked to the sun power ..
Mixed to environmentals shadows ?  

Nice render

I'm not sure what you mean by "disable sun light on people" but "linked to the sun power" at the same time? Can you post an example?

Hi !
It's for optimise lighting of cut people ..
The incidence angle of polygon create no real diffuse lighting ..
The idea is to link this diffuse to the sun + ambient power ..
Combined with environmental shadows .. ( by the other objects )

The photos of peoples are already lighting ..
With this idea, in same scene, all people have the same lighting !
Just they are in shadow zone or not ..

It's just a idea ..

I hope you will understand ..
& sorry for my english ..!
Best regards.

Thanks for your explanation - I understand what you mean now.

I use very often people in 2D, and if an option (enable / dissale), for my good, but I prefer it as it is now, otherwise in a shady area the people look seem too self iluminated. Otherwise, in a lighted area, as well as you indicate your images with the explanation, if desirable.

Yep, is heasy twickable with shadows brightness

People and all objects could use brightness/darkness sliders so that one can match them with the light/brightness in the scene.  Sometimes they look glued on the images.

There are a lots of tips for 2d integration !
Normal relighting, overlay image, 3d low-poly shapes for shadows & reflexion, ... i hope lumion will integret them ...

But i prefer use 3d animated people !
Best integration, but medium-far distance min !!
Can we hope more realist 3d peoples in futur ??

Very nice soft !
Good continuation !!

I believe I remember reading somewhere here that eventually YES there will be more animated people added in the future.
