ShadowCast - distance

MaXyM

Is there any way to control distance from camera to shadow where shadow will appear?

I did simplified object to fake dynamic shadow from paddock. Unfortunately shadow appears when camera is about 300m from closest shadow edge. It is too late - driver can see when the shadow is starting to render.

Lod-outs doesn't affect this.
Is there any solution?

best regards
 
Lod out does effect this, but the Lod out is limited by

MaxShadowRange(500.00)

In the scn file.
 
thanx. It does the job.
Is there any complete documentation of params which may be used in scn file?
 
I have never seen this Maxshadowrange in any .scn file.. if your going to add this.. where would it go.?

Thanks.
 
Putting it between these lines works:

GroupMethod=LinkSingle
MaxShadowRange(500.00)
AmbientColor=(126, 116, 106)

BTW
Can someone please tell me, whats the difference between:
GroupMethod=LinkSingle
and
GroupMethod=Dynamic
?
 
@Slimjim
simply somewhere in top of SCN file.
Scan other tracks for this string (for example using TotalCommander). I found a few tracks with Maxshadowrange set
