I do sympathise with ziggy when it comes to the shadows being cast through objects.


Oh yeah, so do I! It's a pain. It does just seem to be the way Unreal dynamic shadows work though... I have had no success getting it to be different without using static "pre-baked" shadows... and we can't use them because our scenes can be changed at any time by moving objects and so the shadows have to be dynamic too

Posts: 1257 		Here's a thing that's been puzzling me
( nothing to do with cameras incidentally) how come objects have such a problem intersecting (backdrops etc) but characters seem to have zero collision and can pass through anything that has the option "can be stood on" deselected
I can put characters in a vehicle but when I try and do the floating ground plane trick to raise them into position the plane cannot penetrate due to the collision properties of the vehicle object.
Is there no way that a future version of Muvizu could have the ability to select an object and turn off it's collision to the same degree as the characters seem to have?

Posts: 975 		So to sum up are demands are......

1) Turn off collision option
2) Way-points (cameras first)
3) More consistent shadows
4) And for me, an undo button that undoes / or a lock button that locks / or percent boxes on the sliders - any of these would stop the devastation that occurs when you try to build a complex set (actually "no collisions" would also do the job).

.....and I'm not coming down from the roof until I get them.

I think the word is 'requests'. It's only demands if you have hostages and I Neil's not (quite) gotten to that point yet. :P
