sharp er shadows please!
I cant seem to get nice sharp shadows with just a fraction of blur on the edge.
What attributes should I be looking at? |
i used a spotlight
ok i got penumbra angle :1 Dmap Filter size: 5 all others default you get a nice softening around the edge of the shadow hope that what you need :D |
I lifted this from one of my other posts. If you're using depth map shadows, try cranking the dmap resolution up for sharper shadows (1024). If you want softer shadows use a smaller Dmap like 128 or 256 and increase the dmap filter to 2 or 3.
If you're raytracing and want a soft shadow, adjust the light radius and increase the shadowrays a bit...maybe start with 7 and go up or down from there. Be aware that increasing light rays will increase your render time. You'll learn alot by just adjusting the attributes a little bit and rendering. |
yeah increasing the dmap res will get less blurred shadows, i think, or cud be the other way around, but i know its to do with the res of the depth map
