Title: Shadow Catcher material too bright
Post by: mlon on 2021-11-14, 14:23:54

Hey there,

im trying to setup a project with backplate (background) but the same image used as
the background in the shadowcatcher is rendering brighter than the background.
How can i fix this?

cheers,
mlon

Hi,

can you provide an example scene of this? Have you tried other modes inside Shadowcatcher than the one you're currently using?

Thanks,
Jan

Thanks for the suggestion j.nosh but i don't see how that would work.

mmarcotic, i will see if i can make a test scene once i finish this job.
Currently i just use a diffuse material on camera projection and tuned it manually
and not use the shadow catcher material at all.
