Shadows overlapping lines softness not

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 12:08:53 GMT

I've searched, read and experimented on a few occasions but I'm yet to find a way to remove those pesky lines at the edge of shadows. I've tried the different sun settings, realistic sun, off, on, settings default, settings cranked.

Is it even possible to get a good shadow edge? I think I saw Dwight mention somewhere that it's just a Lightworks thing and pretty much unavoidable.

Get real and switch to Maxwell?

Eliminate Sun Objects, except an undersun that doesn't cast shadow.
Use Realistic Sun with 128 samples.Or more.

Or, for sharp edges, use the Sun Sun Shader at any setting.
