shadowcaster class
I was experimenting with Andy's shadow caster class and testing my animation controls here:
As you can see the shadow plane is visible despite my best efforts to hide it. How can I hide the shadow plane without making it gigantic while keeping the shadow?

Re: shadowcaster class
Hey Nathaniel - its looking cool :)
What is the plane material you are drawing on? It looks like there might be a problem with the transparency, etc. Can you post your material info?
Also - i see you are using backface culling - it makes the shadows look weird sometimes as i realize now i made a pretty dumb mistake. I have a fix but haven't tried it yet (just a few lines of replacement code). Basically i'm culling against the plane right now - instead of against the light - so there are some issues. Try turning it off and the model will appear more exact.
Anyways - if you can post some code for your material we can probably figure it out. (does the plane itself have any blendMode?)

I'll start with trying to figure out how to embed the DAE easily in CS3 so people don't get timeouts...tomorrow...yawn

Some parts of this message have been removed.
Learn more about Nabble's security policy.
Sure thing. I probably should have posted the relevant code initially. I'll do that later tonight.

Re: shadowcaster class
I actually managed to figure out the shadow problem, Andy. I'm kind of embarrassed to share what I was doing wrong because it was a silly mistake but I'll paste the working code below in case someone else wants to do something similar. It's pretty much an exact copy of your demo with a few minor changes. Thanks for your help, Andy...something you mentioned in your reply led me to the solution.
I turned off back face culling at your suggestion and it did help those issues you mentioned. Yes, the plane did (past tense) have its own blend mode. I removed it when I figured out the proper solution though.
The still incomplete experiment/test has been updated and you can see it at the same location here. -Nate Code: -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//setup shadow and light shadowCaster = new ShadowCaster("shadow1", 0, BlendMode.NORMAL, .7, [new BlurFilter(4, 4, 2)]); shadowCaster.setType(ShadowCaster.SPOTLIGHT); var movie:Sprite = new Sprite();
movie.graphics.beginFill(0xffffff, 0); movie.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 900, 900); movie.graphics.endFill(); var shadowMat = new MovieMaterial(movie, true, true); shadowMat.doubleSided = true;
shadowPlane = new Plane(shadowMat, 900, 900, 1, 1); shadowPlane.pitch( 90); viewport.getChildLayer(shadowPlane).layerIndex = -100; scene.addChild(shadowPlane); light = new PointLight3D();

Sure, thanks. Maybe that will motivate me to spend my free time finishing it up.
