is there a trick to make objects stop/allow to recive shadows?
i know u can allow/prevent object to CAST shadows, but i have this part in one of my scense that is not recieving shadow, therefore resulting in a more bright color and making confusion about the material applied..
i can't find a way to get it solved, but maybe there's a trick somewhere i did not notice..

HI,
Read this post and watch this video, it might be what you are looking for:

here is a quick example of what is happening.
basically, on the left, from directional light and shadows menu, i've selected the option to avoid shadow casting for all objects.
as you see, object colors are consistent, as they have the same material.
when i switch to "make all object cast shadows" (image on the right) you see that all the objects beside the one highlighted recieves shadows.
apparently, this happens to updated parts or replaced parts, apparently the ones that has been somehow mirrored (before you ask, NO, it's not a flipped normal issue :P) and, if i'm not wrong, this happens in one specific file coming from alias..
probably the best option will be to completely create a new file from scratch and copy-paste the surfaces, but i'm not hoping for grate results here..
just wanted to update you on my problem, maybe someone has an idea
me neither, it's the first time it happens honestly..
or at least the first time i noticed it..
now it's fixed, i can add and remove things freely.. don't know what caused it..
