How to Shadow

[xXIndestructibleEVAXx]

How do I get shadows without turning up all the graphics options? I found the option in the settings cfg, but I turned it from 0 to 3 or 4 but it didn't do anything!

Is it possible to turn on shadows without turning the graphics up?

You want to turn up the graphics without turning up the graphics?

Shadows require pixel shaders, which are inherently graphics controls.

Shadows are an intigral part of graphics options, in all games

It depends on the Render Quality setting. I think "Simple" is the lowest that gives shadows.

Shadow Cascades determines quality of the shadows but won't make them come or go. Pixel Light Count is unimportant to shadows.

cantab, are these in the game menu, or the cfg?

[cantab]

That's in the game menu. I don't know what the corresponding lines in settings.cfg are.

ok, just asking.
