Hello

I have some troubles with shadows in daylight mode (only?).

If I load an image for opacity map on square object (with power set to 1). It become perfectly transparent depending of the opacity map but I still have a square shadow on the object under.

More if I affect a Black RGBSpectrum the square become completely transparent but still cast shadow

I must certainly miss something

Thanks for your help

OK

after searching in the forum I finally have my answer: correct shadows with opacity maps only work in pathtracing mode !

Is it a bug ?

Not really a bug , just not something that Radiance had sorted yet in Direct lighting mode.

OK, thanks for your answer!
