The earlier the release, the more features will make their debut in A7 and not A6. Many features, like the new light management, are already finished but only work in A7 because they rely on its rendering kernel.

An alternate method named z-fail has been implemented and will debut in a later version of 3DGS once it moves out of experimental. This newer method eliminates the camera in shadow artifacting but at the cost of framerate given it is more intensive. Quote: shadow_stencil now also supports z-fail shadows when set at 2. Quote: Z-fail stencil shadows are slower than z-pass shadows, but more robust. They are independent of the camera position and allow LOD models to differ greatly from the original model, which would otherwise cause shadow faults with the z-pass algorithm.

Z-fail Shadows are private beta but not public beta, so i hope it is implanted in 6.50. Athlon 64 3700+ 2048 MB DDR PC400 Dual Corsair XFX Geforce 7800 GT A6 Commercial 6.4
