Hi. I am having troubles modifing the ground prop. I can't seem to get it to show. And how do I change its color? How do I fix this? Also, shadows on the ground aren't rendering either, although shadows on the figure do. Thanks. :)

Also, is there a way to make parts of props and clothing (mainly clothing) transparent?

Dont know about the first one I never use the ground plane only other props or add it in in post work. 2nd question , you could use either double click the part of the prop you dont want to see and clik invis or you can make a transparentcy map for it.

Ctrl - G makes the Ground show up :o)

Ctrl G makes the ground show. Then in the P5 material room you can put a texture on it. In P4, you can also put the texture on the ground in material setup. And a bump map and or a displacement map in P5. And when you adjust the lights to put a shadow on the ground, it will render. Here a little tryout : just added a picture to the ground map, and only one light at 45 up. Hope this helps, Tony

Thanks. :)
