bright Penumbra shadows

(gynec) #1

ok here i have a hunk for ydnar :smiley:

i use the Penumbra Shadow in my map. The problem is i want a bright day lighting. I tried to raise the FilterRadius. But that isnt the right way i think. I got really dark shadows in parts of the map and want them really bright so you can see all details. I need a weak shadow but still with Penumbra effect :moo:

Your skylight is very dim. Try increasing it to 80 or 90.

A good rule of thumb is this: Skylight brightness + sun brightness < 300.
