I believe you need to set cg_shadows to 2 to have the high detail shadows. Shadows 1 are for simple shadows.

I confirm.

Shadows 2 are a little buggy but in most situations, it's much better looking than without ;)

One problem:
SlipKnoT:~# locate autoexec.cfg
/root/.cedega/hl/c_drive/SIERRA/Half-Life/tfc/autoexec.cfg
/root/.cedega/hl/c_drive/SIERRA/Half-Life/valve/autoexec.cfg
And Tremulous?..

Forget about autoexec.cfg or autogen.cfg. Just open the console in the title screen and type \cg_shadows 2 there. The setting will be saved for later.

Put this in your autoexec.cfg:

Disable shadows
r_stencilbits 0
cg_shadows 0

Simple black blob shadows
r_stencilbits 0
cg_shadows 1

Transparent grey shadows
r_stencilbits 1
cg_shadows 2

Opaque, solid black shadows
r_stencilbits 0
cg_shadows 3

If you would like to change the r_stencilbits cvar in-game, do not forget to do a vid_restart after changing r_stencilbits

Personally, I think the last two options are retarded, since they produce bugged shadows. I would advise you to stick with the blob shadows, since the so called high-quality shadows only look good in stills, not while moving.

Post by: ziplocpeople on October 03, 2007, 05:03:56 AM

my favorite shadow setting is (even though its kinda glitchy)

Transparent grey shadows
r_stencilbits 1
cg_shadows 2

but when i use it it only displays shadows under humans and the cg_shadows 3 works fine but its just ugly. so if any1 can help that would be great.
