never too late to learn...

i'd curve the backplate slightly to prevent hitting model.

Thanks for the tip. Only problem now is that when I rotate it to left it becomes very dark

to the right it's ok

Set it to not receive shadow in the entity info

Already checked that, it's set to neither cast or receive shadows

It's the native shading so. which you can't overide.

maybe brighten the background a bit more?

Let's just chalk it up to another weird hellnbak problem

I'll work around it.

Thanks again

There is an option from memory, shadows face sun, it's a check box on the component itself, that might be what you need.

Already tried that one, didn't help.

For that scene you can also adjust the light/dark settings in the Shadows window. This will however also affect the shadows on the robot. The curve in one instance gives a nice graduated backdrop, but in the case of the side shot, maybe a flat face is better or curved opposite? (You don't have to use the same object as backdrop in each scene.)

The shading feature makes many SU renderings work great and is also good for modelling interface but causes issues, for example when we want to show an elevation of a building and the roof, ground, or ceiling becomes super dark.
