Shadows with software renderers

Post by Linkin Puck »

Is it possible to get shadows with the Burning software renderer? I don't care how slow they are, it's not for real-time use.

No, burning does not support stencil buffer.

Yeah, that's what I thought from looking at the code. I was hoping for a trick to workaround it.

Thanks anyway, Hybrid.

Well, actually it supports stencil shadows in SVN/trunk, which will become Irrlicht 1.8 :wink:
