Jamshid63 Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 its a very simple question. ofcourse i have gone through odforum and google for redundancy. Question is , how do i get an object and its shadow rendered out. eg:- if i have a box on a ground i want to render out box and all its elements including its shadow but excluding the ground. so that i can save time on rendering background and that way i can export to Photoshop and play around with different background. i know the long method i want something like vray in maya, vray has a shadow catcher. below is the only tutorial i found on internet. this method is ridiculous, and its pretty old . i am hoping there is a simple method ,as the update of Houdini in each year is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6ril Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Hey, you can just use a shadow matte material for your ground. And get straight in your beauty pass, your scene and the shadows in the alpha channel only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
