I dont think he wants static shadows in Sphere.. anyway, Sphere is very limiting in what kind of levels you can build, becasue of the visible light limits, and the fact that there is no real scene management. I was waiting for Octree to be implemented in A6, but it so far not here yet (as far as I know, havent looked at betas in a while...0 Maybe for Sphere 3.0 I will do my own Octree system, and occlusion culling
