Only render shadows

[Jorgensen_cg]

Hi

When I'm rendering a model for inserting in photos, I would like the existing buildings to cast shadows on my model, but the building itself should not be visible.

What I need, is to be able to create objects that cast shadows, but hidden themself
An other usefull thing could be able to create objects that recive shadows, but are not visible themself. Thoese two things could be very helpfull when creating renderings into existing context.

Does anyone know if it is possible ?

Right now this is not possible. I'll ask Joe tomorrow to see if this is up for the upcoming service release, but I'm not too sure.
