Oct 28, 2015 at 18:45 comment added siska Aleph : I don't think lights & objects have to be on the same layer, as long as you don't check 'this layer only' for the light ... . JtheNinja : yes ... that worked, but the lighting effect is not uniform that way. I'm now trying with area lights. That seems to be the way to go !
Oct 28, 2015 at 18:19 comment added JtheNinja Sun/hemi lights are always at infinity. Their location does not matter, only rotation. If you change them to a point light, do things work as expected?
Oct 28, 2015 at 17:13 comment added Aleph Are you sure your lights and objects are on the same layer ?
Oct 28, 2015 at 16:47 comment added siska I have found what is causing this, but I don't understand why ... My room has a ceiling ... I had both lamps inside the room, but apparently you cannot do that ?! The moment I render without the ceiling, I have shadows. Render the roof as well, and the shadows are gone (even with both lamps inside the room) So, how can I solve this ? Should I use point lights instead of a sun ???
