Trouble Rendering Bapho in 3DLight

tailz_b5babac3c2

Hello all, I am sorry if I have posted this in the wrong area.

I recently picked up Bapho for Genesis 8 Male and I am having a little trouble rendering the model with the 3Dlight engine. I did my main rendering in iray (which I have no problem with), but I do a second pass using the 3Dlight engine to capture ground shadows using a shadow capture plane object. Below left, is an example of what is happening when I render in 3dlight. The model is rendered in white with the fur/hair, but the shadow is not rendered. I have added a second render (human figure on the right) to show how the model should be rendered with shadow.

I am using the default 3dlight settings. The below samples were rendered using the same settings, all I did was render Bapho, remove the model and then add in the base G8 Male model.

I am wondering why Bapho is rendering like this...

• Have I somehow turned on/off a setting that causes this?
• It renders fine in iray but in not in 3dlight?
• Is this a texture issue?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello! The "what's included" only mentions IRay material presets, so the first question would be:

Did you convert the PBR (Iray) shader to proper 3Delight shaders like OmUberSurface or AoA SS shader? Since the product does not have 3Delight presets you need to make them yourself.
