Re: Objects not cast a shadow option? Mediafire doesn't allow direct links on the free account so I've stored these on my own website. The first image shows an interior (low-grade) render where you can see the view through the window of some palm trees. The second pic shows how this is arranged, with a textured flat 'billboard' plane (lighting is used on this plane to brighten the view from inside the room). The problem I brought up in the first post is that the textured plane is seen as an opaque object by the renderer, and therefore will block sunlight out unless carefully positioned (sun is coming from south-west in the render), and I wondered if there might be a way to have an option in the software to stop such an object from blocking light, while still leaving it appearing opaque (It doesn't want to be transparent!). ![]() ![]() |
