Hi,
I have two boxes in two different light_groups with two different
light_sources. Like this:
light_group {
light_source { ... }//light 1
box { ... }//box 1
}
light_group {
light_source { ... }//light 2 (different to light 1)
box { ... }//box 2 (different to box 1 }
}
When I render this, the boxes get shadows from both light_sources. But I
want that box 1 has only the shadow of light 1, and
box 2 only of light 2. How can I do that?
Your help would be greatly appreciated,
J T

Looking at the documentation... apparently light_group only affects the
actual illumination instead of both the light and shadow. However, I haven't
worked with this in such a long time so I could be wrong.
You can apply a shadowless keyword to the lights or no_shadow to the objects
to work around this. Problem then might be how your scene is affected versus
what's intended by you. Might be possible to set up a second pair of lights
to cast shadows onto a floor plane, for example.

Not with light groups. You have to try playing with visibility options of
individual objects and see if you can emulate the desired effect.
