v0.97 - how does it go with shadows?
« on: March 20, 2008, 03:56:55 am »

Hi Steve, I've just downloaded the new preview and it's AMAZING!

I've got just one question: why does the ART Ray Trace renderer always render shadows? I've turned the shadows off in the light, object and preferences settings... and there are still shadows in my scene...

Thanks for the great new features!

I hadn't even thought about that!  I'll fix it so that it obeys the shadow setting.

Yep. I tried doing it with water. The problem is that beacuse all the shadows were rendered, It didn't come out so good.
