Thanks The E

one question? are there debug builds of this Valathil`s binaries?
from reading this FAQ there is no other way then by having debug builds

No, there are no debug builds.. 
We were pestering him to release one...but he wouldn't listen

If you read the thread you'll learn that Valathil doesn't need them. Post a screenshot and he'll go "oh ****, that's what I did wrong," fix it, and we be happy.

If you read my posts you'll learn that shadows just don`t show up for me at all, you don`t need a screenshot for that.
Since i`m the one person for which they never worked i assume I`m doing something wrong

BTW tried a fresh install, still no shadows. Any help would be appreciated.

Now that I try it as well shadows don't work for me either after I did a fresh install after a windows format a few days ago... I using the Alpha 3? (latest) version of the shadows build... All the files are in the correct places (quadruple checked). They just don't work!

I can't speak for the third alpha thingy, but have you tried the build that combines lightshafts and shadows? Perhaps that one is more willing to play ball. It's in either this thread, or the lightshafts build's one.

Tried that, it just gives me a crash...

sorry Valathil...i noticed that the cockpits and the visible ship in cockpit view aren't affected by shadows....maybe is a well known issue,anyway post this just for inform you.

thanks so much

* Cobra coughs

There are so shadows affecting the visible cockpit. My video proves it.

[torc]

yeah cobra you right....i'll make a double check with the mixed sunshaft/shadows build...apparently i used the shadow alpha n.3

Just figured I'd mention something -- It seems that, while performance is fine with normal models, shadows causes major slowdowns with certain models, for example the Burning Heaven campaign, when looking in the general direction -- even when far, far, far away -- of a custom model; a space station in what I think is the second level, the game slows to a crawl. Just putting it out there.

Like Valathil said (a few pages back) the shadows are not yet fully optimized for various LODs and stuff.
