Hi all...

I'm having a minor issue with shadows/lighting in this game, I think it's plainly obvious from the screenies below.

When I go into an external camera, everything is fine as long as I'm zoomed in closely to my plane:

Shadows fine:





But when I zoom out a tad further, my plane and any surrounding planes suddenly go "dark", like the sun stops reflecting off them:




As you can see it varies, sometimes it's just my plane that's "dark", sometimes it's every other one but mine, etc...

Any idea whats causing this? I realise it's trivial but hey, I'm a perfectionist Smile

I know **** about graphics, but I know enough to ask to save time for when the experts come along - what is your shadow setting in OPTIONS? What graphics card do you have?



Sorry Death, you lose! It was Professor Plum....

Turn off full shadows. They are buggered.

I have them set on Full Planar, yeah I know, I know, I should turn them off but I don't experience any oddities or glitches apart from this.

My card is the 7600GT.
I'll try them off just to see if it makes a difference though...

Btw guys, is there any way to tweak specific shadow settings in any Config files or anything like that?
