Hi I'm trying to make the sun moon and earth. I came out and they are moving around each other in 3 planes. I have problems with light. When the moon comes to the ground, it does not darken and when the moon is between the sun and the earth, it does not drop the shadow to the ground. I use JAVA FX 3D PointLight
no one has stated the absence of 3d shadows in javaFX 3d because it has never been present, this answer might be useful to your case
The core JavaFX 8 3D API has no in-built methods for supporting generation of shadow effects for 3D objects.
