Disable shadows per-object? (solved)

Postby tachzusamm » Fri May 14, 2010 4:02 pm

Is there a way to flag certain objects to not receive shadows?

I don't mean "cast" (which works well with the shadbuf switch), and I don't want a shadless region - just some objects which don't receive shadows from an avatar.

Imagine some grass leaves; when the avatar draws shadows on them, this reveals too obviously that the grass is made of only a few faces *cough*.

As an example, the high grass in Eder Tsogahl does not receive shadows as well.
But how is this done? I tried the "Shadow" button in "Shaders" but with no effect.

Oh - I already found the solution (in the WIKI. Not directly, but by guessing and trying).

Code: Select all
MyObject:
    visual:
        icicle:
          - noshadow

did the trick. :)

(I'll add a short note to the Drawable Flags - Icicle Properties chapter)

Thanks for your attention. 8-)
