Notes
- The position of the plane depends on its transformation in the 3ds Max scene.
- You can have more than one infinite plane in the scene.
- The plane is rendered with the material applied to the VRayPlane object.
- Shadow maps will not include information about the plane object. However, other objects will cast correct shadows on the plane, even with shadow maps.
