.X Files not rendering shadows properly during animations

Post by Aelis440 »

version: tested on both 1.4.2 and 1.5, both appear to have this problem.

Using the 8th Tutorial, SpecialFX, try replacing the dwarf.x file with either of the above .x files. You will notice that shadows are only being rendered at the 0th (or 1st) frame and never update. However, with the dwarf.x file, the rendering is done properly. Calling functions every loop like updateShadowVolumes() does not fix the issue either.
