Shadows Compounding on Top of Each Other

[Anonymous]

See the attached screenshot. Notice how the shadows created darker areas as they overlap from other nearby 3D Objects. I need these to be an even shadow tone.

Thanks for any help that is out there.

I guess you're using ground shadows. Try to set VsShadows = 2 and see if the full shadows helps display what you're looking for.

Thanks for the quick reply, I appreciate the help.

The full shadows effect wasn't what I was looking for - see the attached image. Again, I am interested in producing uniform shadows. Using Ground Shadows seems to be the only setting that I can tinker the program into producing shadows at all, but they overlap - which isn't helpful.

Post a fragment of your file.  Otherwise its difficult to diagnose.

It looked fine to me in the paperspace and then in plot preview.  Then it crashed when I tried to plot a pdf.

Your monochrome plot style was missing for me.  Not sure that would effect this.

More likely IMHO to be related to your graphics card.  Try use software to see or hardware if it's off.
