> How do I get the table's shadows on the back wall?

I think you should have listened before when Warp was telling you about the
walls and ceiling pigments filtered transparency and needing a rgb <1,1,1>
instead of just color 1.
And that I had said your light source is way outside the room too, as well
as changing the zeroes in your scales to either 1 or some small non-zero
number.

I hadn't followed what you're doing but it sure looks like the script has
touches of Moray in there judging by those decimal numbers and I'm not sure
if you realize how you've cobbled it all together or not.  Maybe you do, but
since you seem new to it I have to think maybe you don't know what you're
doing.  :-)

Anyhow, I took that script and changed it to get the shadow of the table on
that back wall Seriously though, I can't tell what you're trying to do in
making the room the way you did.  I'd have simply differenced out a slightly
smaller box from a larger one.
