disable self shadow?

Post by xDan »

Is it possible to disable self shadowing of meshes? As it doesn't look very nice... or is this impossible in the current shadow system?

The self shadowing on the specialfx example also looks pretty bad. Is it meant to? I mean, it's not a problem with my graphics card or somethin?

or should I just adjust the shadow intensity/colour until I get something reasonable?

Thanks! :D

No, @ the moment.

Because it renders first all light,skybox,solid node
before rendering the stencilShadow then the transparent
node.

All solid node will be affected by stencil shadow.
