Soft shadows through using Bloom.

Soft shadows through using Bloom.

Postby Skinnytorus » Wednesday, 05.September 2012, 19:33

Hey guys.
After some brainstorming here viewtopic.php?f=41&t=1119 I managed to fake the soft shadows,
however I had to double the floor mesh in order to combine the matte shadow material and the diffuse material.
If you know how to avoid doubling the floor mesh, please modify the attached file ;)
Thank you.

nice, but fps is crying

however it's better if you decrease size screen in bloom :) (half or quarter)

Ahh, I see. In addition to Allowshadow you used Flat shader for the floor. I'd never guess that! Thanks a lot! :)
As for the FPS, mine dropped from 1100-1300 to 500-600 which is not so bad. I'm glad it's not 30-40 which means
that this technique may work for small scenes ;).
