Hi Thorsten,
I think that is what we have for now. You can do better by increasing your
shadow map size to 8192 or 16384, but at the 16384 resolution my
performance goes into the tank, and at 8192, there are still many shadow
artifacts due to lack of resolution. (clearly blocky/xelated/aliasing
edges, something that looks like z-buffer fighting for objects further way,
etc.) Hopefully this will improve with future tuning. I'd love to be able
to overfly the SFO terminal at 1000' for instance and have solid shadows on
the AI aircraft, solid shadows on the light poles, solid shadows from the
terminal building, etc. I'm hoping that will ultimately be possible.
Otherwise, just getting one good clear shadow of our own aircraft onto the
ground and onto ourselves would be a good 90% solution.
Curt.
