Hey John, Ooops! Well, cyberspace can be a confusing place, especially when nobody has a face <g>. Very sorry for the mistaken virtual identity! I wish I could describe this scene to you a little better… A spotlight shining through a glass material (??maybe this is a problem?? Nope) onto a wall with a picture hanging on it. The light is shooting through at a 45 degree angle. In the window are two tall crossbeams. When the light shines through the window at the wall, the whole wall is lit up blue, but no shadows. But the picture does have a bit of the shadow – it just doesn't travel past the bottom of the picture. I know this is a little different from yesterday – I'm bigtime stuck. Maybe I will take you up on the upload, just to see what your fiddling results in… Does it have anything to do with the SHADOW SETTINGS? I've read the 3DS manual ten time and still can't get a good grasp on what these settings do. Thanks John James
