Shadows bug [SKIPPED]

#1 Post by TheETS2Boy » 12 Jan 2013 20:32

I have noticed, that you can't see the shadows of other cars in your mirror, even though im on ultra.
Is this meant to be so or is it a bug? This looks quite odd, since ya can see the the car/truck in the mirror meanwhile you're seeing it out of the window, that means that in the mirror there is no shadow, but outside the window, there is one xD

It’s meant to be like that.

Many games of similar ilk do it ;)

That is as designed. To generate shadows in mirrors need more PC performance for each mirror. So they decided not to implement shadows to mirrors.

Yeah, but, couldn't that be like a thing that only will be enabled on ultra settings? I mean, i am playing ETS2 on ultra, without a sight of lag! Since i also think that you will have to have a really high end gaming rig (wich i have)!

Maybe, I don't know. I only know what they said. Maybe this was one of several things to remove to make it run okay from the beginning.
I also run ETS2 on ultra, without a sight of lag, remember to set scale to 400 aswell. And I only have a Geforce 470 :-)

Maybe in future we will implement possibility to switch shahows in mirrors. Today is nearly impossible run game with shadows on each mirror.
