forest 3.02 + vray

(1/1)

Hi, i`m trying forest 3.02 with vray 1.5 sp2 (vray sun+sky for lighting outdoor) , but the trees dont cast shadows ( i`m using standard material from forest library), any tip how to fix it ?


scene : http://rapidshare.com/files/136106540/vray_forest3.max.html

iToo:
To get shadows on VRay, disable "Hide planes on viewport" checkbox (Shadows rollout)

Other useful tricks for this scene:

- If trees look too dark, set "Self-illum" of the base materials to 0 (in VRay, Self-illum seems to work reversed)
- To avoid the self shadowing issue, disable "Receive shadows" for Forest objects (right click->Object properties)

hi, thanks for tips, but only self-illuminatig tip works, take a  look on this screenshot :

iToo:
The "Hide planes..." parameter must be unchecked.

To modify "Receive shadows" property,  uncheck the button "By layer", because by default the object take all properties from its layer.
