Is anyone else having an issue with shadow only renders in Poser Pro 2010? I had an obvious shadow in the original render but I wanted boost it a bit so I did a shadow only render and it only rendered the last third of the image with a shadow. Anyone else having issues or is it just a weird glitch, it did it twice on the same scene. Thanks

can you show the render?

In the absence of a visual, I have to assume that what you expect is a shadow isn't.

For example, if you light a figure from behind only, the face is dark, not because of shadows but because it doesn't point towards the light.

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)

I will show a render when I get home and it isn't that, there is a definite cast shadow coming from the figure's chin area but it does not show in the shadow only, same in the stairs and other areas. It also doesn't show any of the AO that is in the scene, except in that one part of the image.

Here is the zdepth render since it is doing it too.

Whoa. OK I've never seen that. You should contact SM.
