3D model eclipse and script animation

Hi all,

 

I'm new here. Great product of which accuracy I was already aware. So I choose it to create this model.

 

I'am having big problems with lights. Initially I was thinking the better kind of light (for the sun) would be distant lights, since they don't decrease with distance. I tried all other kinds but I can't see the shadow of the moon on the earth when the moon cross the ecliptic (21 august).

I tried several objects closer to the earth and they do cast their shadows but more they walk away from earth less shadow is visible till it disappear way before reaching the real moon orbit.

 

Surely there is more than one setting that I missed. How can I solve this shadow problem? Is Autocad appropriate to render this type of model?

 

Thank you,

Valerio

 

P.S. I'm working on a script for this: is there a way to render the script animation (included shadows!)?
