Hello!

I have a complex network of tubes as a static mesh and i would like that mesh to have absolutely no shadows. I already unchecked “Cast Shadow” but that only took away the shadow it casts on the graund/environment it still casts shadows on itself. or maybe the dark areas are only unlit but setting up 50 directional lights around it doesn’t semm like the way to go.
how could i make this mesh appear equally lit?

Thanks in advance,
wambo

Use an unlit material.

Tried it, then the whole mesh was black. Connected the Color node with “Emissive Color” and everything was fine.

Thank you very much!

Yeah. Emmisive is self lit and, if certain settings are enabled, will produce light. Base color, normals, etc are lit by the environment.
