    Thanks for the tutorial, there are two things I couldn’t figure out with CS-Daylight. One is I couldn’t figure out how to turn on softshadows for the lighting. Every time I try it switches it back to raytraced shadows and second I couldn’t seem to get a texture to show up on the skydome inside the CS-Daylight object. The only way it seems to work is to change the name of the object in the OM.

  5. Hello Gorilla! How could I soft the shadows? Great tut!

    Hi – Love your stuff Keep it coming and upgrading the world!
    I’m running c4d 11.5 using CS Tools – Daylight but it’s not responding, there is some change in the lighting on application but the full change one would expect is not happening! playing with the user data sliders has no effect at all! AAAAH! Help.
    Thanks
