Hello everybody. I've been trying to create soft shadows for models using scripts that have been published previously in demos but there is no way . I'm driving crazy. Please can someone help me. I have no script at hand or anything. Thank you very much.

Real (not default shadows in 3dgs) are quite hard to create with 3dgs lite-c, for now. I hope that conitec will help us with that or maybe some of the plugins will soon be finished.
I wasn't clear enough try reading -Shaders and -A7Engine subforums and you'll see what i mean.

Well, I hope in the future conitec help us, but for now maybe do you know someone script easy to manipulate that could help me with my problem. I would appreciate any help possible. Thanks again.

This shader just blurrs the Z-Buffer-Shadow. It doesn't look as good as conitecs shader so you can use their at once.
well thats better than nothing

actaully it doesnt even do that, it makes a seperate flattened model of its own (not the built in zbuffer shadows) multiple times and scales them with different alpha values, which is very slow. So to be honest its not even better than nothing unless you dont mind taking a fps hit like that.
