gazebo shadow with transparent texture
Hi, I imported the dae file which is made from Blender.
The dae file contains just simple plane with texture and transparency
The model itself works well, but shadow does not reflect the transparency
Please see below image
How can I make shadow reflect the transparent part?

Unfortunately, I don't think there is a way of fixing it right now, feel free to ticket an issue on Gazebo:

The shadows right now don't seem to be taking the texture's transparency into account, so the shadows we see are from the original mesh. You can check the original mesh by choosing View -> Collisions:

Thank you for your answer. But, I saw a pine tree model(https://bitbucket.org/osrf/gazebo_models/src/default/pine_tree/) gives a reasonable shadow. Do you know how did they do that?

I updated the answer with a pine tree example

I see, I thought the small shadows take the transparency into account before looking at your image. Thanks. I created the issue

you should be able to take the shadow caster shaders I added in this gazebo_models PR and apply them to your model: https://bitbucket.org/osrf/gazebo_models/pull-requests/312
