Problem with shadows using real option

Post by szakul »

I have a problem with shadows when object is shiny and shadows are "real" or eye. No matter how long picture is rendered or what is a ground material, always shiny material is on the shadows like at the picture I annexed. Only ambient option is free of this problem.

How to achive something like this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekoiug2in6c ??

It looks like your ground is too shiny and doesn't have any diffuse or bump to it. What are the settings you have? Mine had Shine=5 and Bump=3 (or Shine=1 and Diffuse=0.3) For the video, I used "Grain Free" with 30 samples per frame.
