Lightmapping - Shadow power
Hi,
I am searching a way to control shadows of the lightmaps. In realtime lighting, there is a value that controls the power of the shadows but I don't find such controls in lightmapping.
There are some way to make the shadows less visible, but this leads to a lot of light that kills the colors.
How can I reduce shadows without affecting light or illumination power ?
Thanks a lot !

I found two ways to modify the Lightmap shadow power.
Change the lightmap in a painting program like (Gimp, Photoshop, etc...). But it's very hard to do it properly because of the 32Bits/Channel Color mode.
An easier way is to find the good balance between the Sky Light Intensity and the Directional Light to soften the shadows.
