  Problems with shadows

  Posted by Ernie Geefay on April 18, 2007 at 3:03 pm

  I have created a 3D book in invigorator for after effects.
  I turned on the shadows and set softness to 3
  I am using the Invigorator renderer…not open gl
  Here’s what I am getting

  Notice how the shadows don’t blend correctly.
  Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong

  Hi Egeefay.

  Check your Shadow Map size:
  1. Open the Invigorator Options window.
  2. Open the Invig Prefs dialog
  (there is a “User Prefs” button in the Object tab below the 3D preview area)
  3. Check your Shadow Quality value.
  Higher numbers are better, but may make for slower renders.

  If that doesn’t help, feel free to send me the project. I’d be happy to take a look.

  Send files to: matt@zaxwerks.com

  Thanks.
