Hi !
I needed to create an Octane light. But the only thing I can't set in Octane light property is cast shadow.
"$.castShadows = on" has no effect.
Any idea ? Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for reporting this.
Unfortunately, this has the same name as the standard CastShadows property (in Max's Object property) ! I can't find a way to access it via maxscript ..
I'll rename it "Cast_Shadows" in the next release..

Thanks
