white infinite vray plane, material wrapper and bad shadows

[stevesideas]

Hi guys,

Im working on a white studio environment for a couple of cars. I need a white plane ( a vray plane) to be a constant white until infinitey. I use a vray plane, vray material wrapper with a white vray base material. I check matt surface in the material properties and shadows, but get really nasty shadows.

If I just use a normal white plane the shadows are fine, but the plane darkens as it gets further from the camera.

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Steve

Have you selected the "Shadows" and "Affect alpha" options for the matte properties of the plane? Looks like you also need some more subdivs for the shadows.

So I have to make sure the wrapper object and the vray plane object properties both have matt surface and affect shadow, affect alpha on ?

Just the ones you are using - in your case, the parameters of the wrapper material.
