when using static shadows and moving the camera throughout the game space ive noticed taht the shadows do this "weird thing". i*the player* walks under a tree casting a static shadow and the shadows sortof invert themselves. is there a way to fix this and if so could someone show me how?

*bump*
*i meant stencil shadows not static*

When the camera can be inside a shadow you must use zfail shadows not zpass. Read of shadows in the manual here: http://manual.conitec.net/shadow_stencil.htm

i tried implementing this...and nothing happens...

same here...in display wdl file it says
var shadow_stencil = on;

so i change it to

var shadow_stencil;

then in the main function i say shadow_stencil = 2;

is this wrong?

OOOH zfail is something only in a7??? can it be used in a6?

A6.6 also support zfail stencil shadows.
Just write:
var shadow_stencil=2;

we've tried that, but to no avail...
