Note that Alan's comment about using the spotlight overshoot option instead of ray-traced shadows is very appropriate. It means that architects can (in many many cases) get away with still using shadow-mapped lights using the overshoot function — and not have to resort to ray-tracing the shadows. Spotlight overshoot is extremely powerful AND gives you the ability to soften your shadows a bit. – G
