$\begingroup$ Hello and welcome. This question seems to have been asked before in multiple forms over time, and already has various answers but you never acknowledged any of them. We are not sure if you aware of the existing posts but none of the described techniques address your particular requisites, or you simply didn't do any research at all. Could you edit you post and clarify how your question differs from the suggested duplicates? Otherwise could you rephrase it to focus on a particular step you are stuck with? $\endgroup$– Duarte Farrajota Ramos ♦Commented Oct 16, 2023 at 10:49

$\begingroup$ Thank you! Is this the only way? Is it possible to create a Shadw Map shadow type (like from other light types) from the background? $\endgroup$– tmxCommented Oct 16, 2023 at 10:41

$\begingroup$ Sure, you can bake the shadows in Cycles if this is what you mean $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 16, 2023 at 10:49
