Damn ridiculous shadows

Recommended Posts

Ok, I can stand the crappy prehistoric pixelated 8-bit shadows, but what is this?! 1, 2, 3, 4. It's like a damn texture that shadows everything and keeps following me! It advances just as I do and it's just annoying. I tried various tweaks but the only one that works (not much) is setting iShadowMapResolution to 2048, but unfortunately this makes my game stutter. Does anybody have a solution without losing performance? It would be much appreciated.

Damn trolling shadows.

Could be wayyy off here, but try setting Anti-aliasing to 2 samples or just off. You will probably still get some grid-lines but it will be less noticeable.

Yeah, you are a bit off since AA just makes jaggies less apparent.

Increase your ShadowMapBias value in your skyrimprefs file.

 

I'm afraid I don't have that http://i32.tinypic.com/28k2h42.gif

Do you mean the ShadowMapBias value or the skyrimprefs? The skyrimprefs file should be in your documents. C:/users/(you)/My Documents/My Games/Skyrim

The ShadowMapBias... Anyway I increased shadow distance, and even though shadows now look even ****tier than before it has fixed my issue with no performance decrease. Thank you for the help, both.
