\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tree shadows are created for terrain trees in Startup(),
\nwith adjustable strength, shadow shape, shadow color etc. (unity indie)<\/p>\n

Ideas\/Todo:<\/strong>
\n– Animated shadow? (based on terrain wind settings or just random..?)
\n– Different shadows for different trees (Get treesize, type..)
\n– Angled shadows (currently its directly from up..)
\n– Shadow rotation with day cycle?
\n– Splat shadow or darker terrain texture also.<\/p>\n

Features:<\/strong>
\n– Currently it only adds 9 drawcalls (doesnt matter how many trees you have)<\/p>\n
