Ok so i rendered this scene in terradome with the lighting and settings they say to use.  But see in the picture the ground and hills have these black holes almost all around. any idea how to get rid of them?

Could you screencap your render settings?

I can never remember if those are due to bad AO settings on materials.

Try checking "Remove backfacing polys" and see what happens ... :blink:

Two sided polys present ??? (they usually render black)

Make a note of which sky you did use and then I would pick a different sky from the Terradome collection and render the image again to see what will happen. Most likely all of the black will be gone. There a one of two sky/light settings from Terradome that do cause this, I don't recall which ones. Whenever I encounter this problem with Terradome, it seems to me that the light is casting shadows from an object that isn't there, perhaps was left behind accidentely by the makers or a wrong setting used.

The other thing that could be going on is that the hills are casting shadows. For the light that casts the shadow , set the to a lower figure, like 0,8 and see that happens then.

If choosing a different sky will get rid of the problem, head over to RDNA and mention the problem. I think I've seen it brought up there before and they may have a solution for you.

Artwork and 3DToons items, create the perfect place for you toon and other figures!

Due to the childish TOS changes, I'm not allowed to link to my other products outside of Rendo anymore :(

Food for thought.....

If you uncheck cast shadows in the properties for the ground objects it should eliminate the black spots.

If he removes all the golfers, who's gonna pay the grounds fees?

meltz, just curious to hear if any solution was found. I've been trying to recreate it but no luck.

A golfer's gopher would be called a caddy, right? :P

Ergo... remove the caddys.

SORRY!
