Thanks! The question for you is....is the  "Shadow Bias" adjustment working in iC6 for you?;)

Well worth the question (and NEVER EVER worry about 'hijacking' from me). As Rampa pointed out - I solved my problem and yours is one that I will encounter myself sooner or later and I am glad you posted this here. We need a FIX here I believe- and the BIAS adjustment seems the most obvious - but even that seems a little last century IMHO. Hopefully the RL Team can do a tweak on the next itiration.

I am also seeing no effect from the bias on spotlights. :(

Stuck with workarounds, I guess. I'm guessing this is mostly an issue with building walls? As they are relatively thin. I guess it would effect things like hat brims though.

Use your spotlights in close. They do have the advantage that you can open them up really wide for crazy-soft shadows. That lets you have hard and soft shadows in the same scene.

Thanks again guys! So Bias Adjustment isn't working for you rampa?

My issue is I really need to be able to put my spotlight lights where I need them... to create the effect/mood I need ya know!:D 
I've made so many compromises in iClone 6 already it's really beginning to wear me down I'm afraid....course I guess/hope it's just me and my system :blink:
A working Bias adjustment would surely fix the shadow problem I'm having!;)

It's a bug. Doesn't work for me either. Probably a bit of code didn't get written. We should send a notice to developers and they will resolve. As we are delving into elements that are probably beyond the need of the casual user, this sort of operating 'fix' should be in the next update, IMHO.  By the way, I am happy to answer to Julian or "Hey You" on occasion. Many thx.

I'm kind of hoping  that the title of this thread becomes a cooking show, or something. ;)
