Catcher Plus – Shadows and Reflections for Iray

Compatible Figures: N/A
Compatible Software: Daz Studio 4.21

Details

Being able to recreate shadows and reflections in your 3D scenes enables you to insert 3D content into photographs and make it look like it belongs there.

Catcher Plus is a utility that makes it very easy to catch shadows and reflections leveraging the powerful Iray render engine. Floor and Wall planes can be easily created, and even existing geometry in your scene can be converted to catch shadows, reflections, or both.

The utility allows you to adjust the reflection amount, as well as the reflection blur to match up with the existing reflections in your background photograph. Simply selecting any catch you’ve created and running the script again allows you to make changes to the settings.

Catcher Plus is an excellent utility to add to your toolbox if you enjoy merging 3D items into existing still photographs.

Note: We used our FSpy Importer to auto-magically set up the camera settings in a lot of our store images.
