What am I supposed to do to have dynamic shadows ? | Forums

hi

Upon the request of someone, I want to turn on the shadows and take screenies of it.
HEre is what I did on the main.cfg file :

[SETTINGS]
LoadingMovie=No
VoiceCommand=No
DisableMessages=Yes
EventCamera=Yes
TextsLanguage=0
VoicesLanguage=0

[TIME COMPRESSION]
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=1
CriticalDamage=1
CrewEfficiency=1
AirEnemyDetected=1
SoundEffects=2
CharacterAnim=4
EnemyDetected=8
RadioReport=8
Particles=8
PrayState=8
HunterState=32
3DRender=32
Maximum=2048

[VIDEO]
Resolution=1024 x 800
DynamicShadows=Yes
FullScreen=Yes
Synchronized=No
ParticleDensity=100
TextureResolutionHigh=Yes


BUT IT DOESNT SEEM TO CHANGE ANYTHING.

Any clue ?

It might be a feature that never made it into the game but the option still remains in the cfg file. Bit like changing the resolution has no effect.

It was me who suggested the dynamic shadows ON for some screen shots, but if there is no difference at all Krycek1972 is absolutly right!

oui il y a 2 fichiers main.cfg
un dans le dossier programfiles/ubisoft/sh3 et un dans tes dossiers personnels appelé sh3 avec ta campagne etc.. c'est dans celui-ci que les modifs sont prises en compte

Stefostef thanks for this info, never occured to me there were two main.cfg files
I can now mess about and see what I can do, I have already figured out how to change the pre-assigned keys in the game, seems to be some great moding potential here.....

I guess it is the reason why it was not an ingame option.....maybe for the future patch !!

Not a critical bug though.

ah oui...et merci Stef pour l'info...j'aurais mis du temps a trouver.

Yes I have the same bug when I activate dynamic shadows, and I loose 30 FPS too, lol let's forget it.
