Render Layers Shadows...

Hello, it happens that two objects in my scene are in the same position.


What I would like to do is to render the monkey on top of the cube, I have put the cube in layer 1 and the monkey on layer 2 and setup the render layers accordingly. I have to activate both scene layers to get the rendering done, but when I look at the monkey layer it has received a nasty shadow… Why is this happening? Any ideas to solve it?

I need both objects to receive and throw shadows, the problem is that they interfering with each other, I need to get them rendered separately.

Thanks.

Could you light with lamps on each layer (monky and box) limited to just that layer?

Hello, thanks for the response. I tried that but no good.

Anyway, I found a workaround, I went to the Cube rendering layer, then Render > Shading (dropdown group) and I Removed the Shadows checkbox (render.use_shadows to false).

Cheers :slight_smile:
