Hi Paul !
I made a fresh scene with a tinted glass : with fake shadow it works.
I save my material
I opened my scene where it don't work, import my saved material : don't work.
I switch my render kernel from path tracing to direct lighting to info channel back to path tracing : it works.
Strange. But i'm happy : it works !

Best regards

Hi Paul ! What is the best method to make lights in Archicad Octane ? Is there some dedicated objets ?

For lighting, please check out the following links:
