      Hey Gang,
      Where did my shadow go? When I add a texture to a model a shadow will no longer cast/appear on that surface. See the image below- no shadow on the door face and the drawer panel. ????

        Well I just fixed it. Turns out I saved the textures in PS as .png 24.
        I resaved as .jpg and now the shadows show.

        So... now the ? is... is it possible to use a .png and still get the shadows? or is this an SU bug?

          Wulp,
          Further experimenting I found I'd saved the .png in PS with "transparency". That seems to have solved the problem. πŸ‘Š
          So...Gee thanks for the help. 😳
