Spotlight's shadow

evilcho_

Hi. Is there a way to remove a shadow that the spotlights are leaving on the ground? The only way I've found is by changing the geometry to "point" but I find the results better with "disc". Is there any other way to remove a shadow casted by a spotlight?

Thanks nemesis. Really sucks that the shadow can't be disabled.

The combination of changing distance and intensity should work. It is the trade off of having a render work like the real world.  You could also use another kind of light source like an emitter where you can make the emitter itself invisble while shining light i.e. https://www.daz3d.com/iray-ghost-light-kit-3
