capthelm, can i make a mod request? :P
U see, i've got all the settings at max, but in the sub interiors it is laggy like hell due to the dynamic shadows (which doesnt add that much inside anyway).

However outside, the dynamic shadows are absolutely beautiful (especially combined with these light rays), without too much fps hit.
Watching the ship shadows roll across the sea, with the light rays pretty much "defining" the shadows in mid-air, is really really pretty.

Now, i tried tweaking the shadows.cfg file in the interior values, but even if i turned the far clip to 0.0 and such, the framerate drop was still there.
Is there a chance someone could make a mod which completely disables the dynamic shadows inside the sub, with the same framerates as if it was turned off in the options, but leaves them on for the exterior / conning tower?

Thanks

edit: almost forgot, which of the settings in this mod changes the length of the light rays? I'd like to make them like 5% shorter

Also, that value, Sun Multiplier, couldnt that further fix the white-golfball syndrome? Unless it multiplies the actual sunlight on the objects :/
