All shadows in 3d project suddenly disappears when a text layer starts

Hello,

I´ve searched and not managed to find any thread on this problem.

I have a scene in 3d with a camera and light. There´re shadows that work correct and logically. The camera is moving around. No problem with anything really apart from one major thing that seems to happen for no reason - on a specific frame ALL shadows disappears. This happens on the first frame when a textlayer starts. If I remove the text layer all the shadows return.

I need to know what´s going on, can someone help me?

Thank you.

    There are shadows under the photos and under the book, but it might be hard to see in the screenshots. But they are there.


    Jesus Christ... I tried moving the layers higher upp in the hierarchy and the shadows came back.

    Fixed it. Thanks anyway!

    Well, is the text layer actually 3D? Does it have a layer style or effect applied? A lot of these things can simply break 3D rendering order. In such a case you may need to pre-compose and use the resulting comp as a 3D layer (without continuous rasterization) to obtain a correct result.

    Thank you Mylenium, I removed the outer glow effect and the typewriter effect, precomposed it and clicked the 3d box. All the shadows now returned.

    But I tried applying the outer glow to the precomp instead, but then the shadows disappeared again. Does this mean I can´t have my 3d text with outer glow and typewriter effect?
