Are area lights coming? Other lighting types?

Are area lights coming? Other lighting types?

Would be used for static lighting only

Barn door lighting would be nice to mimic light coming through windows

We have some interest internally in textured quad light sources, but I don’t know when we’ll get to that.

Light coming through open windows can be done very well with static lighting by pointing a spotlight at a quad just outside the window. This is what Koola does for his super high quality scenes IIRC.
