[Radiance-general] rendering without shadow

[Thomas Bleicher]

Brajesh.

Your problem description is a bit cryptic. Could you please clarify
what your problem exactly is and add a few details about your scene
and the exact command you  used to render your picture.

Rendering a scene completely without shadow is probably possible but
it would not look good. You need shadows to see the shape of objects.

You seem to be new to Radiance so I am speculating a bit about your
problem: Your rendered an image but everything that is not in direct
(sun)light is totally black?

If this is the case you have to add the option "-ab 2" to your rpict
command line to calculate the light in areas that only receive
reflected light. Depending on your scene you should increase the "-ab
2" to "-ab 5" or "-ab 6" to capture the ambient light more accurately.
However, I assume that you also need to set other parameters to
improve the quality of your rendering/calculation.
