Self-Shadowing Everywhere?

[Ashton Lawson]

I don't know, but so-far, I haven't seen any pics where you can see self-shadowing in the VCs.  Has anyone got any info on this?

If there arent any for the VCs, then at least Microsoft is providing it for the exteriors. Remember, this is the first time they put it this stuff.

So, I think that if they can do it on the exterior, it shouldn't be too hard on the interior...  I think...  (I don't know if they spent like a month or two trying the self-shadowing...)

With the SDKs that will come with the FSX, I'm pretty optimistic that at least one addon developer could provide the VC shadowing. Addon developers always come through.

Thats only assuming that the self-shadowing is in the modelling.  If its actually in the game engine, then we gots a problem...

How do you know this?  Articles, or a guess?

If thats how its done, that there should be no problem for ACES to implement it...
