B2 lights shadow multiplier

Just tried to make a B2 Main light while using Krakatoa. No “features” active on the B2 light. When rendering, this message comes up.



---------------------------

Krakatoa Error

---------------------------

– Unknown property: “shadowMultiplier” in Brazil2 Main Light

---------------------------

OK

---------------------------



Render then terminates.



3ds max 9 x64 sp1, Brazil 2 build 1488



We hadn’t seen this prior to 1.0.103.30750.



We can’t “exclude” a light, so the only workaround is to delete the offending lights, which makes rendering in passes a bit of a pain.

    EDIT: I put this in the wrong forum. Should be in the bug reports one

Yep, I discovered this myself while working on a scene with a B2 Dome light. It appears to be a regression caused by the fix we had to provide to support correctly international versions of Max (Shadow Map Size was not read in German Max and probably other languages).

We will fix this ASAP.



Thanks!
