Cast Shadows

[BorderLine]

Hi,
How opacity map can cast shadows ?
One map + one opacity map doesn't cast shadows on ground !
Thanks in advance

Can you post a sample image/scene with this issue? The shadows should be rendered taking the opacity maps into account.

Thanks,

Franck, you need to have Alpha Shadows enabled in RenderTarget.

Another problem ! If i use Octane projection node, the products are white. I f i use UVMAP node, Products are goods (no cast shadows).

Can you send me the scene to test it here?

Thanks,

The shadows problem is related to the shelf material. It is too specular, with the diffusion parameter near to 0. Without diffuse reflection, you can't have direct light shadows.

The projection node seems to work fine here, but you need to link it to both texture nodes.

Ok ! Thanks !
I'm ok for UV map, but i don't understand diffuse and specular. Can you show me your map setting to have cast shadow ?
Thanks

I'm trying with your setting, but no cast shadow.
I've seen you have a black background. Here is white !
Thanks
