Shadows On Geometry
Available in: Krakatoa v1.0.0 and higher.
The Krakatoa Shadows On Geometry rollout contains the following controls:
- The >Save Attenuation Maps When Rendering option is unchecked by default.
- When checked, additional bitmap files (or file sequences when rendering an animation) containing the attenuation maps for all light sources will be saved in a sub-folder \Shadows of the current render output path.
- The same control is duplicated at the bottom of the Main Controls rollout for faster access.
KNOWN LIMITATION Regardless of the file format set for saving the output image file, the Attenuation Maps will always save as .EXR!
- The Open Krakatoa Shadows Utility button opens the Utility floater which is also accessible as a MacroScript in the Krakatoa category of the 3ds Max Customize User Interface dialog. See Casting Shadows On Geometry and Shadows On Geometry Utility for details.
