Simple Shadow?

Post by alelink »

Hi guys,
the shadow in Irrlicht currently kill the framerate.

I think this method of shadow is similar to raytrace, right?

I've played some games (Resident Evil 0 & Rebirth, Silent Hill3, Mario Sunshine...) in which the shadow seem to be like "depht map shadow" in Cg program, in low-resolution.

DirectX or Opengl support this type of shadow?
Irrlicht will?

There is a strange problem, the shadow is projected on the mesh below the mesh with the shadow but, projected on the mesh below the mesh where the shadow is projected on, too. How to solve this?
