Why wont the shadows work!!?!
« on: July 18, 2012, 01:01:01 pm »
Shadows always showed up one the old anim8or but for some reason they wont work for v0.97. They didn't even work for the light samplers file from www.anim8or.com/download/preview/art_raytracer.html

HELP!?

I wonder if the old version added a default light to the scene, but was removed for the latest version. Do you have more then one Anim8or installation? Try running the older version with the same scene and let us know if the shadows render.
