Its my fish tank for the latest Rhino challenge. But, I have a question for the Bryce experts: Why no shadows? Light is a row of spots under the top. thanks

It looks like the lights are washing out each other's shadows. Also make sure the objects and lights are set to cast shadows. In the sky lab you can set the intensity of shadows (90 should be default). Other than that I'm not sure.

I agree with Aldaron, check for shadow cast settings. Over all there aren't any shadows in the entire scene. Nice job so far & Good luck.

and make sure your textues in the mat lab have cast shadow enabled. They should by default.

Check your sky settings boxes. I did the same thing with my June Challenge and forgot to turn them on. One of the little boxes at the top of the screen controls shadows............ Chris
