Shadows Not Rendering

Hello!

I’m working on a model of a mechanical spidery thing. I made the model and did a few render tests with shadows off. However, when I turned the shadows back on, it still renders without shadows.

All the settings for materials have shadows on.

If you know what might be the problem, please tell me. This is the first time I have ever had problems with shadows not rendering.

Is ray shadow on in the sun lamp?

I’m not an expert on lighting, but I think it’s because you are using a Sun type lamp: http://download.blender.org/documentation/htmlI/ch12s02.html#light_sun

Try using a spot light.

Oh, sorry! I forgot to check the ray shadow. Thanks for wasting your time.
