cassius Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 During game at some point a large rectangular shadow covers my terrain. It looks like a cloud has obscured the sun. if I rotate the characterI can lose this shadow.

macklebee Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Yes I have seen this issue. It has something to do with the vegetation - specifically some of the tree materials/shaders being used/not used. Once I sorted the correct shaders for the material the dark shadow went away. I would suggest taking a look at the tree materials and confirm the right shaders are being used.

cassius Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 Ok thanks. I am using the pine tree some grass and bushes all supplied with engine . I have not altered shaders myself. I will take a look. Quote amd quad core 4 ghz / geforce 660 ti 2gb / win 10 Blender,gimp,silo2,ac3d,,audacity,Hexagon / using c++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macklebee Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Yes, some of the default materials that come with the nature pack also have this issue. I think it is caused by not having shadow shaders in the material but having 'Shadows' checked in the Vegetation properties panel. The default pine-trunk.mat's shaders: shader="Shaders/Model/diffuse+normal.shader" shader3="Shaders/Vegetation/diffuse+normal.shader" Resulting In-Game Scene: Changed pine-trunk.mat's shaders to: shader="Shaders/Model/diffuse+normal.shader" shader1="Shaders/Model/Shadow/shadow.shader" shader3="Shaders/Vegetation/diffuse+normal.shader" shader4="Shaders/Vegetation/Shadow/shadow.shader" Resulting In-Game Scene: 1 Quote Win7 64bit / Intel i7-2600 CPU @ 3.9 GHz / 16 GB DDR3 / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 590 LE / 3DWS / BMX / Hexagon macklebee's channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 The nature pack is updated with the edited material now. You will need to uninstall and reinstall the DLC (Workshop > Subscribed Items). 1 Quote My job is to make tools you love, with the features you want, and performance you can't live without.
