      recently i observed KT light components , and as i saw there are 3 types : some of them are SU models + KT point lights _ when imported in KT u c component + a pomit light
      some (like jewl lights ) are just a pyramid , downward + point !! __ When imported to KT u c a spot light
      and some are : a component that some part are materials that is called as (EmiteFake ) __ when imported in KT u c a emiting face !!
      and here is the qustion : how we could make some new SU 2 KT lights? âť“ âť“

        Hi Majid,

        You can turn any geometry into a KT Light as it is described in this extract from the (old) Getting Started tutorial (but still relevant to Kerky Echo and the latest su2kt exporter).

        @unknownuser said:

        If you’re using the su2kt exporter above ver. 2.20, it will recognize any components starting with "su2xxx_pointlight_yyy" or "su2xxx_spotlight_yyy", where the "xxx" represent either "kt" or "pov" and where you can enter whatever you prefer in the "_yyy" fields. i.e. "su2kt_pointlight_no1" etc...

        After creating the component, you can right click and set its parametres via "Edit light" in the context menu.

        Gai...

          Thanx Gaieus ... it was very informative for me ... and also i discovered that if i rename a material as "EmiteFake.." it would be a non emiter but bright face in KT !
