Quote - It would. Look through the shadow cam of an infinite light, by default you'll see the whole scene, including the skydome.

Perhaps, but only if you forgot to do something very important - disable shadows on the skydome. The automatic inclusion of scene elements into the shadowcam viewport is based on things that cast shadows. If an object does not cast shadows (as a skydome should not) then it will NOT expand the shadow map to cover that object.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
