sorry, i’m still new to this forum so until i get all the tweaks working i’ll miss things like editing correct the link, etc.

Seems like the balcony has no floor that would cast a shadow.

yes THERE IS A balcony, that why i’m asking what could cause that … is it a bug into blender/yafray? … or just my limited knowledge of these two … i rendered the model in several stages - it is a work in progress for a house - and now suddenly with the same settings (light/shadows/bias, etc) it starts this wierd thing … so anybody smarter then me, please give me a hint … thanks a
