18.13.4.1. Shades

Allows you to set the parameters of shadow generation in real time.
 
 Enable/disable shadows in real time.
 Set the resolution of the shadow maps:
 
·         Height (4096 x 4096)
·         Medium (2048 x 2048)
·         Low (1024 x 1024)
 
 
 Shadow intensity. At minimum there would be no shadows, at maximum the shadow parts would have only ambient light.
 Shadow Edge Smoothing Radius:
§  No smoothing
§  Softened 1 (default)
§  Softened 1.5
 Controls the reduction of “Light bleeding”. This artifact can be seen at the point of contact of two elements, the shadow appears "detached" from the surface.
§  With “bleeding”
§  Without “bleeding”
 
 From what value is it considered that there is a shadow. If it is too low, visual artifacts may appear. Too high makes bleeding worse.
§  Threshold too low
§  Suitable threshold
§  Threshold too high (bleeding gets worse)
 
 Resets shadow parameters to their default values.
