I see I'm not the only one having fits with shadows this week. ( I'm going to
have to manually retouch several frames of an animation to get a soft-edged
shadow that isn't ropy and mis-aligned. Hopefully, Elastic Reality will save
me some work here. )
So I'll make a MAX wish . . .
I wish for (adjustable/animatable) shadow blurring as a function of distance
from casting object to simulate penumbrea. I think that this feature in
combination with raytraced shadows would solve a great deal of problems.
