Hi Grzegorz,

I'm now trying my level without any lightmaps and only using EE's dynamic lighting but I get shadows with lots of "jaggies". Is there a way to make them softer?

Thanks for any help or tips

regards,
Alvaro

Try incleasing shadowmap size ,1024 for example.

D.shdMapSize - shadow map sieze
D.shdMapNum - number of shadow maps (but this is by default set to maximum)
D.shdJitter - shadow jittering
D.shdSoft - shadow softing

setting ViewportFull.range in InitPre() also makes a difference (the smaller the range the better shadow quality)

as I recall these are all the options which can help reduce blockiness

So Esenthel engine can't handle a large view range (?)

Yes it can,
I'm just saying that it affects the shadows quality

Is there a way to get large views and "good" shadows?
Sorry, long time without use esenthel engine (i think next month i can start again xD)

what setting are you currently using?

1. viewport range
2. number of shadow maps
3. shadow map size

what kind of viewport range would you want to have?

the only thing I could add to the engine is to limit the "shadowing range"

for example having viewport range = 10 000
limit shadowing range to = 1 000

0..1000 range will have shadows
1000..10 000 range will not have shadows

Well, i can't tell because i lost my old code (but i remember the most important things 8-) )

This last option would be great

Ok, I've added it to my tasklist
