Hi This is so ACE  I so want this for my outdoor level, be great if someone can pull it off. I think this is one of the most important shadow techniques and helpfully Conitec will help someone with this, because one of the main downsides of this engine is its shadows.

Hey, this looks great. I am excited.
Chris, if you need something (models or textures) for the demo, just let me know if I can be of help.

If you look at actual games, you can notice a clever mixture of static lighting and dynamic shadowmapping, even with stencils.
The goal should be to provide a perfect working shadow for all situations.
I´m quite happy about your claims and I wish you success.
no science involved

Wow, impressive! I have long given up on creating nice dynamic shadowmapping for gs myself (in fact i kinda hate shadowmapping shaders by now. They come from the devil itself!  ). Are you using a dll for this or is it pure lite-c? I'm asking this because i don't want another sphere-like plugin. Sphere was all nice and stuff, but it completely lacked a manual, wasn't compatible with new gs versions and you had to keep some things in mind/use workarounds if you were using sphere. Anyway, i'm looking forward to this. If you can get it to work the way you planned (indoor & outdoor support) and it's based on lite-c, then i will 110% buy it

Hi! The next small step is done... I did the first physX-simple-boxes test:  The main problem, at the moment, is to combine the physX-engine with my renderer...there are few things I don't understand...so I would say...It will take more time as I thought to get both things working together. I think, I can manage to present you a little test demo until friday. But I can not promise it. Greetings, Chris P.S.: @ BoH_Havoc : I have to make it as a dll, but I definitely don't want to create another kind of SphereEngine ! @ Machinery_Frank : Maybe later Frank, but thanks!

Sorry, that it took so long, but I had some little problems with the PhysX stuff. I hope you are still interested  Here is the first Beta Demo Version: Demo Download But I still have a lot of things to do: - Change from DX View to 3DGS View (1-2days) - Import all PhysX Features (min 1 week) - Alpha sensitive depthmaps (1 day) - Combine with Indoor Lights (2 days) Greetings, Chris
