after effects - limit affect of light layer
 

Hi

I have two 3d layers and two light layers in a comp. I want each light to affect only one of the 3d layers. I think this is possible, but I can't remember - thanks!

On the layer you don't want to be effected by the light twirl down the material options and then look for "accept lights" and switch the function from on to off.

I was able to achieve this by pre-composing one of the layers and it's light
