Turn Off Default Lights 2021

I'm using the Arnold renderer, with a simple scene. Just a ball on a matte/shadow plane with a single Arnold light.

 

However, I am getting two shadows in my render. I think it is the default lights causing the second shadow.

 

I tried the [+] to change the viewport configuration as in previous versions, but the render tab is no longer under the "Configure Viewport". I also checked regular render settings and couldn't find the option.

 

Can someone please help me figure this out?

Hello,

 

Thanks for your question! Do you have any image or color loaded into the Environment slot in your scene?

 

In addition, have you gone to the Rendering > Environment menu and set Global Lighting (Tint) to 0?

 

Please let us know if this helps, and we hope to hear from you soon!
