i have some questions about rendering with the given lighting scheme and also the artificial lights

1. rendering external scene - with a setting sun and interior artificial lights turned on.

the rendered scene i got from this combo is just the light from the setting sun and without the interior lights even though the interior lights were set to ON. I have also set the portal for related elements.

what have i missed?

2. rendering external scene - with only artificial lights both interior and exterior.

since lighting scheme does not provide this combo of interior and external lights option does this mean there is no way of doing this lighting combo?

3. rendering external scene - with only interior lights.

 the interior lights worked fine except that the exterior is too dark even with the aperture adjustment? did i missed out on any settings here?

please advice?

2. The interior/exterior options only really control how the HRDI Ski lighting is incorporated.  I believe Exterior - Artificial Only will give you want you need.

3.  So you've tried exposure adjustments?  The lighting is fairly realistic so if you are finding its too dak oustide perhaps you should try adding some street lights or some external lighting?
