I want to cast my actor's shadow on a box, which should not be visible in final render?
just want to see shadow on that box, not the box. is it possible?

thanks in advance.

Shadows can not be received by invisible objects. They also can't be cast on transparent objects.

This is not an iClone restriction, it also doesn't happen in the "real" world.


yes, but it does happen in the "cgi" world
a matte shadow option would make life so much easier for those that do compositing.
