<div dir="ltr">Hi,<br>I don't know if this is already in development, but my idea was to use bounding boxes to calculate shadow maps similiar to lamp shadow mapping implemented in apricot branch but they would be orthographic(or direct). <br>
(1) Every object in a scene would have its own shadow only in resolution of its bounding box.<br>(2) Objects with bounding box behind other bigger object would be ignored by this sun light.<br>(3) ShadowBuffer size could be set up by global number value or specific objects could have its own shadow buffer size (like trees..). This can be handled by groups.<br>
(4) Object far from camera would have a reduced shadow buffer size....<br><br><br>So what do you think? :) Is it a good idea? </div></blockquote><div><br>i think PSSM would be best for shadows of the sun. ogre will use this method in version 1.6 for example. it shouldn't be very hard to implement.<br>
