Hi every one!

Hi- if the scene is modeled in mm, you may have to turn down the decay on the light the way things are currently working. It looks like long distances ( that is, measured in large numbers of what ever unit you are using)are too much for the light if the decay is set to inverse-square, i.e. 2 .
Try settng the decay to something betwen 1 and 2. Here a point light at full blast (10000) will only reach 250 units at most.

Comput,

Make sure you do not have Shadows disabled under VRay>Options>Global Switches.

Best regards,

I have the Lights, Hidden Lights and Shadows checked in my Global switches!
I don't get any shadows and no Caustics!
I get refractions but no Shadows and Caustics...

Thanks for the scene. Strange, I had the same settings as your scene but I didn't get any shadows. After rendering out your scene I got the shadows in my scene... Somehow your file triggered out the shadows. Now I'm rendering the same scene I had before and getting shadows.

Best regards
