PSSM Shadow Clipping Issue about ogre

we could also add the receiver bbox, but that would drastically decrease shadow resolution.

I would suggest adding fake casters to increase the bbox size for now

Here's another look below which is a more common angle for 1st or 3rd person cam.

comparing it to the same angle with Ogre 1.7 (2nd screenshot) and issue is not present.

Ogre 1.14

Ogre 1.7

[paroj]

mTerrainGlobals->setCastsDynamicShadows(true);

for 1.7 behaviour

[blitzcoder]

mTerrainGlobals->setCastsDynamicShadows(true);

for 1.7 behaviour

ok I enabled that, seems still ok from around that angle..

but I get this:

seems to be a persistent issue up to now with terrain shadows in a different form..

but this seems to be a new one:

just my observation.

this is the screenshot you posted above. The workaround is the setting I posted above for ogre 14
