Carmela Diavolo Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Hello, my graphics settings are usually Mid. Lately I find some unwanted shadows that appear all of a sudden and then disappear like a lighting. I think there was a solution for this is settings but I can't find it now. What can be done?Thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Storm Clarence Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Maybe it is a just question of unclicking shadows in your preferences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Rolig Loon Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 You may be wandering past a series of local light sources. OpenGL, the graphics protocol that SL uses for rendering scenes, restricts each viewer to seeing no more than eight light sources at a time. SL uses two of those itself, which leaves only six that we can use for everything from streetlights to facelights. If you walk through an area that has more than six different sources of light, therefore, you will see only the ones that are closest and brightest. Others will fade or brighten as you pass them. As a result, you'll get some weird shading on your skin or other objects around you. There's not much you can do about it other than wear your own garish facelights to drown out whatever is around you --- and then you'll just be annoying everyone else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
