scafativ Report post Posted August 6, 2005 I was walking past a rock outcropping in DP, and noticed a bizarre shadow along the base. It's weird in that it goes all the way around the rock- the shadow is cast equally in all directions. Also- rather than taking the form of the rock, it seems to just follow the base in an angular way. I don't know for sure that it's a map issue- I can't imagine what soft of mistake in map creation could casuse a thing like this, but it seems unlikely to be a software defect, so I though I'd start here. The exact location is shown in the screen capture: Weird Shadow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sistema Report post Posted August 7, 2005 tee hee ^.^ That's because that 3d object's base(the bottom face/surface) is square. I believe that the shadows and the surface of 3do's have a binding with eachother, even if they are little under the tiles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
