Is it possible to bake a "Multiplier" or a shadow map in 3ds Max? Im not sure what the real technical term for it is but I included a pic, so Hopefully you all know what im talking about.I made the multiplier in the picture in Blender.

I have a jpg image that I use multiple times in an illustrator file, and I wanted to be more efficient by making it into a symbol. So I embedded the image, made it a symbol, then updated my Illustrator file, replacing the instances of that image with the symbol-version of the image. I then tried to add a drop shadow effect to one of those symbols. Although the effect was listed on the appearance menu, it didn't actually show up visibly on the screen. However, if I added a non-shadow effect to the symbol (e.g. blur .1 pixel) then added a drop shadow, the shadow would then appear. Oddly, I have other images that I have made into symbols where this problem does not occur. Perhaps it's some weird image format issue?

I've included a jpg export below, showing the problem. I've also put the original .ai file up on my Google docs folder here: [URL] ........

I'm using Illustrator CS6 trial version (16.0.3 64 bit). on a Win 8-64 laptop.
I don't know if this problem was already there in earlier 3ds max versions, but i cant find anywhere on the internet how to create a shadow on a invisible plane like matte shadow could :

I'm trying to create a shadow map and require a 2nd uvw channel to do so.
Using the unwrap modifier to create the map in the 2nd channel is ok, but after collapsing the stack, if I go back and re-open the modifier the 2nd channel UV's haven't been saved.
I need to isolate the objects casting the shadow and the shadow itself. I can't seem to get things to work. And Rendering out with even the object underneath it as a solid white is proving more difficult then I imagined to get the gradient shadows.
How do I do this. Again, I am fairly certain it's a render elements thing, but 'Shadow' isn't producing it.The scene is using Mental Ray, A&D materials, a skylight (no other lighting).I've included an image. I need the objects shown, the subtle shadow, but NOT the solid white chunk behind it.
I am creating my second video with adobe Premiere. However, I am running into a problem.

For some reason the lower half of the video has this greenish/yellowish color to it. Is there anyway I can remove it?

Here are a couple of photos from the video:

how to erase a shadow - I am taking photos of small steel pieces to put on my website.Using the erase tool is sooo slow..Photoshop cs5 extended
View 4 Replies View RelatedI drew a box, then applied a drop shadow going to the right. I duplicated the layer, then dragged it to the left of the first box. I edited the drop shadow to go to the left, and it changed, but so did the first one. I cannot get the two drop shadows to go in different directions.
I've tried different things, drawing separate boxes, etc. but it still will not work.
Does anyone know why this is happening or why I can solve it?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a shadow but I'd like to make it so it appears like it's in 3D. The shadows utility under Layer Style makes a shadow as if the object would be floating on top of the other layer. But what if I would like to make it appear as if it would be touching the other layer at one point. For example a ball on a table or a person standing up on the grass.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm building a web page and wanted to add some drop shadows to my photos to make them pop a little. how to add a drop shadow,
1.First way was I selected the entire photo and tried a layer effect. Didn't work.
2. Then I created a new layer that was a rectangle. put it behind the background copy and tried to add the dropshadow to the rectangle thinking it might show up from behind the bg layer. I couldn't even add the drop shadow to the rectangle.
I must be losing my memory, where it is that I can add a shadow to some text. I just did this about a week ago and now I'm a blank.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen i apply a drop shadow to one layer, then add a drop shadow to another layer, their directions stay linked so when i change the direction of the 2nd shadow, the first one moves too. Why is this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have found a strange problem with CS4, if I load a file, create a background of a solid colour, and then paste in a masked image, the new image appears OK, and sure enough I can see that it is in the center of the background. if I then try to add a shadow to this top layer, nothing appears?? If I try the same thing in CS3 it works! does anyone know if there is a reason for this, or if I am doing anything wrong? I was wondering if there is a memory issue or if there is a setting somewhere that I need to check out. It does seem to happen only when I am working with some large images, I have though tried loading one of these images and then reduced it to 800 x 800 pixels, but still nothing happens. I really would love to find a working solution if anyone out there can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it...

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been using Photoshop for a while in various graphic-oriented tasks. The problem I am facing is as follows: I was asked to do a watermark on some images on a net-store. The problem with this is that I want to do them in an unorthodo-style. See I have done it all before, just can´t remember, nor find information on how to do it. I want to do the "watermark" from a shadow of a text, so that the shadow follows the pictures curves. I remember that there is somewhere in there a function that allows you to "count" the depth based on brightness etc. In other words I want an effect that a text is casting a shadow on a 3d-object, which here is a 2d-photograph. Somebody following me?
Could somebody please help? I have already made a font of the logo that is to watermarked. I plan to cast a shadow from it on the pic, then copypaste the upper part so that the text the shadow is casted from doesn´t show.
