Vray & Rpc..

[shikodesign2000]

Hi,

 

Can anyone please tell me where I can find free rpc 3d cars for 3dmax9 to download, I want to try them before buy its libraries;)

 

Another question: How can I make shadows for rpc persons&trees? I can't make people moves in any animation without their shadows!!right??

archvision has a demo rpc parking lot car that you can download from www.archvision.com

You have to set the RPC properties. They are, by default, excluded from all lights and do not cast shadow.

I did these adjustments, but with no results, I checked the "cast shadows option", but I don't see any shadows??

RPCs are excluded from lights by default, you must remove them from the exclude list of the light

Thanks my friends very much for your support;)

Unfortunatelly, after trying many plants from different camera angles, I foud that shadows aren't proper in all situations, can I know why?

I include the rpc to the light+cast shadow option is active, but no good results!!

I feel your pain! I had a solution to this problem, for a while, at least. When I was using RC3, I was able to use a couple of chamfer cylinders set to matte -1 (and assigned a matte material) to add some blobby shadows under the RPC character's feet. Now that we're using Build 1.50.00 final, the hack doesn't work anymore. If you're still using RC3, maybe it'll work for you.

You might check out the RPC shadow plugin; made to deal with these problems.
