If it's the graininess in the shadows you're talking about, this is usually solved by raising your sampling quality and/or changing the shadow type and parameters.  It looks like it might be using mental ray, so go into your 'Renderer' tab and increase the samples per pixel (1/4 and 4 are my defaults here). Try increasing that to 1 and 4 or even 4 and 16.

Also, depending on the type of shadows you are casting, try using Ray Traced Shadows or Area Shadows. As Tim said, it's important to know which renderer, shadow type, and lights you are using and what they are set at.

EDIT: and on top of this, it's also important to know what you're going for overall heheh :)

nto using mental ray, using the defualt 3ds max render and when i use mental ray i dont see my image at all..

im using the skylight and im using shadows  um im nto sure, when i put the light down, i checked box said cast shadows

what kind of help do you want?

you will not see anything change in the P.view only when use active shade because p.view is not render. or when you render the view. if you add a light tracer or turn on the FG final gather if you want to make your text better. if you turn on the light trace and add a bouce then the light will bounce off the text.

Antid,

Any chance you are changing the Rays per Sample in the Create panel, rather than the Modifier panel? Check the illustration in my prevous post. I'm using the Modify panel, 2nd from the left. EDIT Sorry, I cropped off the top of the Modifier panel in the image.

Changing the settings in the Create Panel only affects the current creation.

fixed it i think, it ws rays per sample and it was confusing, btw anthony WTF are u doing lol
