Jagged Shadows

No screen caps on hand, but it's just as the title says. Certain shadows have jagged edges that essentially look like stairs.

    Its just a setting. you have some detail set to low thats making them look ugly as ######. Mess around with the options it should be easy to fix.

    It's not a setting, I'm not even sure where you get that from when the only shadow setting is <u>ON </u>and <u>OFF</u>. Shadows look like that. It's not unusual, they look very similar in many other games, too.

    Of course there are techniques to make them look smooth, but the engine programmers had a lot of different and way more important things to work on.

    If Max at some point decides the shadows look too ugly to be in his game, he will make them look better.

    Oops your right. I tested it last night and I was mistaken. I thought a few days prior I had made them smooth. I think I might have been thinking of EXO bullets and lerk spores when the new setting they put in was set to low vs high. Partial affects or details was it? Either way my mistake.
