I buyed the bundle for the light mainly but I dont think I grasp how to use them. I got strong ambiant light in the Viewport but they are realy dull in the render. I hope somone can give me some hint on how to use them.

    Perhaps if you are using Smart Content all the parts of the set are not obvious.

    This is how I find it easiest to use this & any other purchased light set:

    Go to "My Library - Light Presets -dragon3d- ClubNoir and you should see 3 folders

    1. Environments
    2. Lights
    3. Options

    There are several options in each folder so you can choose whichever gives the effect you want

    Well I think you are right, now I have to figure out how they work together because even knowing that I m far to get the result shown in the thumbnails.

    Thx.

    You first select an environment from folder 1.

    Then you select the spotlights from folder 2.

    Critically then is folder 3, which are the changes to the render settings.
