baking shadows
/waves hi,
Apologies if this has been asked before, searched but couldn't find it.
I'm in the middle of making things to import into second life, cheetah and me are really becoming friend, have fun together with the materials, unwrapping uvmaps and all those fancyness. But now i'm trying to bake shadows of my models on a plane underneath it. I need/want the texture for that plane to be transparent with only the shadow on it.
I tried a lot of things, the shadowmat too, but so far the only thing i get is either a black/dark square or nothing at all.
Can someone explain or give me some directions on how to do this?
