Light and Shadows coming through

[alexworx]

Hi all,

I wanted to see if anyone can shed some light on some issues I am having. Why is the vray sunlight coming through the my tent object casting shadows. I was expecting it to be dark inside the tent?

Thanks

Alex

is your shader transparent? that would explain why the light comes through.

I switched out the shader and got the same results

What kind of shader is it?
VRay2Sided?
Or maybe some kind of refraction or SSS?

What happens if you stick a shell on it or an grey material override?

Just whipped out the geometry for the tent and made a new one. For what ever reasons that seemed to solve it. Must have some how got corrupted.

BTW what you do for grass, vray fur or displacement?

Thanks!
