18    <p>This page describes ambient settings.</p>
19    <h2>What is Ambient?</h2>
20    <p><EM>Ambient</EM> is used to set colors when no light is striking the scene.</p>
21    <p>For details on ambient, click <a href="../../../../../../glossary/index.html#Ambient">here</a>.</p>
22    <h2>Ambient Components</h2>
23    <p>There are three locations where ambient can be set under CreativeStudio. </p>
24    <h4>Ambient light</h4>
25    <p>Raises all color in a scene. </p>
26    <h4>Material ambient</h4>
27    <p>Each shadow color of a material can be specified separately. </p>
28    <h4>Light ambient</h4>
29    <p>Event shadows can be created by setting the ambient for multiple light sources.</p>
30    <h3>Ambient calculations</h3>
31    <p>There is a relationship among the three ambient settings.</p>
32    <p class="system">[ (Material ambient) x (Ambient light) ] x [ (Light ambient) + ... (Individual components) ]</p>
33    <p class="warning"><em>If the color does not change even when the slider is moved while setting ambient,</em> check the settings for the material ambient and/or ambient light.<br /> This may be due to an RGB value of 0 or near zero.</p>
34    <h2>Ambient Light and Ambient</h2>
35    <p>Ambient light is used only with fragment lights. </p>
36    <p>If a material has been set for rendering using a vertex shader, that material will not be affected by ambient light. </p>
37    <p>On the other hand, the ambient of a light or material will be affected by this setting regardless of the rendering method. </p>
38    <h2>Ambient Settings at Time of Output from Maya</h2>
39    <h4>Material ambient</h4>
40    <p>Material ambient settings made under Maya are not inherited. Material ambients are always output as R:G:B = 1:1:1. </p>
41    <h4>Light ambient</h4>
42    <p>There is no parameter under Maya for setting light ambient. Ambient values when outputting a light are always output as R:G:B = 0:0:0. </p>
43    <h4>Ambient light</h4>
44    <p>Although ambient light settings made under Maya are output as-is, depending on the settings, the ambient light may appear different when viewed under CreativeStudio. </p>
