Shadow Hulls

From Mod Wiki

Overview

Shadow hulls are used to improve in-game graphics performance. They should be used on more complex meshes, to keep the shadow count down. This is especially valuable in areas with many shadow-casting lights.

Tips

  • Shadow hulls should be "watertight" meshes wherever possible - open edges will result in lower performance.
  • Shadow hulls should always be inside the main visible mesh. Any parts which clip through the visible mesh may produce odd-looking shadow artifacts.
