Hi Everyone!

I know you're all SUPER busy but I need to ask a question and if you're able to help me I'd seriously appreciate it!

I've attached a render below and the lighting in the shot, I'm trying to get it so that the shadows are a little softer. What I really want is for the shadow to make the texture darker but not black like it does right now. I've tried using raytracing (In the image) and Depth map but both produce a totally black shadow.

Is there any way of creating a much softer shadow without having to add in extra lights?

If you're able to help me, I'd be extremely grateful! Thanks! :D

    I tend to keep my Shadow Blur Radius at 15 and Shadow Min Bias at 0.1

    Thank you to both of you! The render is looking very nice now! Somehow I didn't realise that the Shadow dial controlled the... shadow *facepalm*

    And also set the min bias and shadow blur cheers!
