View Full Version : Question about 'DynamicShadows' option in Main.cfg file(s)

Hi,

I have noticed a 'DynamicShadows=No' line in the Main.cfg files in the SH3 folder and the saves folder. This option doesn't appear under the video options ingame. I simply wanted to ask if anyone knows what this option does and if it enhances the graphics in any manner and whether it can simply be turned on by changing 'No' to 'Yes' in the Main.cfg.

What sort of a FPS hit does one take for turning on this Option. I have a 7800GTX, and the game runs great on 1280x1024 (enhanced using the resolution fix tool) with 4x AA and 8x AF.

Thanks.

Ive tried it once in V1.0, but nothing happened. no FPS drop, no "dynamic" stuff, nothing.

I guess its one more "feature" which didnt find the way into the game :down:
