This guy's algorithm for soft shadows is brilliant, BTW. I spent some time speeding it up with a new shader and drastically reduced draw calls (previously 4 per silhouette edge!), and I can tell you first hand that the shadows are absolutely gorgeous.

Being stencil based, though, I don't think it's the way of the future.

Indeed, these are very nice slides. We should make it mandatory reading for any new forum member.

yes.

i purchased this book within a week of its publication. this text reminds me of the 'White Book' by Foley, van Dam et. al. known formally as Computer Graphics: Principles and Practice http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/AS...3/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i3_xgl14/701-7485386-6973113
