Eliminate shadows

Posted by mike S on June 12, 2016 at 2:17am in IRender nXt ArielVision 3D Design Studio (Sket

I have a photo studio model (the one recommended) and I'm trying to get a shot of a product in that model so that the background is just one flat color or white, so I can eliminate it later if I want a transparent background. I set the studio component sketchup settings to "receive no shadows". I do want shadows on the product itself to lend to realism, just not on the background. The sketchup setting does not seem to work and I can't seem to find a setting in IRender to achieve the desired result. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

    Thanks Rich,

    That did it. I had to loose the studio also as it had a floor that I thought I painted white but this works just fine.

    You can also save the image as a transparent .png file to lose a background. If ever do want the shadows on the floor, you can use a transparent IRender ground plane.

    Set the SketchUp Style "Sky" color to white, but leave it unchecked, we we don't try o show the HDRi sky in the background:

    That should do it.

    Another way to do it is to select a pure white image as a background image on our Options/Background tab.
