Title: Conora light reflection in shadowcatcher
Post by: muoto on 2024-09-21, 17:19:51

Hello,

is it possible to have reflection of a corona light in the shadowcatcher material (where reflection is enabled) ?

I only get the object reflection, and not the light.

edit : Ignore, i forgot to tick the "shadow catcher illuminator" in the coronalight property

edit2 : well, if a coronalight is behind a glass material, it is not visible in the shadowcatcher reflection, so that is problematic (imagine a building at night, with lights inside the appartments, not reflecting on a river that's on a foreground shadowcatcher)

Thanks

Hi, it seems to be working fine here even if the light is behind glass. What am I doing wrong? :)

thanks for testing
it's strange, will redo a test and send over the files with a support ticket if it still doesn't work
