Hi Eric,
I don't quite understand what you mean by - "materials settings to off on accept lights"?
An object can still cast shadows or accept shadows even if it doesn't accept lights.

Cheers, Rob

Hello,

This is just something that I've wondered since beginning using AE and that's what is the logic behind having to change material settings to "off" on accept lights when you USE a light.  Logically, in my pea brained head, "accept" lights is the more correct answer.  I change now purely because that's the thing to do but never understood why.

Appreciate it.

Eric
