Hi,

I need to have an object who make juste shadow, that's work when turn off Camera visibility and turn on shadow visibility,
but the object is visible in reflection and refraction of the other object.
And iff I whant no shadow I turne off shadow visibility, that's work but the shadow is visible in reflection and refraction.
I try different Geometry type, nothing work's.

Need help please,

Thanks

(Sorry for my poor English, I'm French)

In extra attributes in object maya tab, you need to convert your object from global to scatter, then you can preserve shadows and eliminate primary visibility.
