  Diffuse Without Shadowing?

  Posted by Joe Walker on May 18, 2012 at 5:24 pm

  This is really easy in Maya, but I’m learning C4D and can’t seem to replicate this effect…

  I’m rendering a moving black and white procedural texture on a sphere to later be composited over a planet as an electrical field. The problem is that I can’t seem to get rid of the default shadowing. Cranking up the Diffuse and turning off Specular works in Maya, but isn’t working for me here. I tried rendering out a Diffuse pass but it’s still casting the default self shadowing from the scene lighting.

  Here’s an example…
