OTOY Forums

I'm a relatively new octane user and have come across this issue for quite a while now. When I'm trying to composite a 3D object onto a backplate I get this black shadow wherever the plane is that I am using as a floor. Weirdly it only seems to happen with car models. Yes I have checked the matte option in the material settings and I am using a HDRI for the lighting. Thanks in advance.

Hi Mike,
about this argument, please have a look at this discussion:

And please, next time post your questions in the Maxon c4d section, for a faster answer:
