Light is added to sources
1) soft shadow reflects on smoke, but smoke doesn´t cast shadow.
2) area shadow - will render forever when getting to horizon.

I get same problem with GTX980M.

Raytraced and Area both working here, also casting self shadows. (thought I had the same issue, but I forgot to add the light to Illumination...)

Hrllo,

The "2) area shadow - will render forever when getting to horizon." should have been solved by beta 3.
Please let us know if you find any other issues!

Thank you!

confirmed fix from my side for the endless render. Soft shadows still not working, but that might be limitation as well.
Made the shadow casting sphere glass and shadows and reflections are working with that as expected.

Yes, soft shadows will not work and we'lll keep digging if we can find the way to make them work with FumeFX.
Thank you!
