light deselect and select

[cloudfx]

Hi I am trying to light a object and looking for a way to select some object that I dont want them to be lighten up. Where do I find this command in light objects?

[anim]

there is Light Mask parameter on objects

so you can just put: * ^light1

to exclude light named light1 from illuminating that object

there is also Shadow Mask on lights to exclude some objects from shadow casting

you should be able to use bundles for these patterns

have also look at Categories, they can be pretty useful for this as well

There's also the Light Linker pane.

So if I dont want to get shadow from some objects(for example, woman_21,woman_22,woman_44 and man_86),

I go shadow tab's shadow mask and do

* ^woman* man_86

correct?

almost, however you need to specify ^ in front of every pattern you want to exclude, so it would be

* ^woman* ^man_86
