Re: Outdoor Lighting

for a lighting system, just use the daylight in the systems tab, from there go to the modify tab and change the it to mr skylight (say yes to adding mr physical sky) and a mr sun. Go into environment and set logarithmic exposure control with the "exterior daylight" box checked. In the hierarchy tab, you can set the time of the day and the daylight system will do all the calculations. Very simple and very good results. It does have a slightly high render time, but nothing too extreme, and btw make sure you enable final gather.
