The file SH3Controllers.act (as SH3_DynamicShadow) of the first version you can find in my Public Folder.

Thank you Anvart ,

Here is some sort of explanation about how to code dynamic shadows ..

Dynamic shadows would be nice but I'd rather see the myriad of game play problems fixed first vs. *another* graphical item.

Dynamic shadows don't add a lot of "eye candy" in SH3, and they are buggy anyway. I think that SH3 is just not good enough to create "realistic" environmental scenes. Particule effects are also very limited.
