and bug, no shadow with amd/intel graphics card

DerUranov97 · December 8, 2025

If you want shadows for bridges, etc., you must install a second shadow for the isPC and make adjustments in Area.cpp.

Works for iGPUS + dGPUS.

on 0:30 bridge:

The trees don't cast any shadows because of the billboard, so I'll have to think about that some more.

Thanks for the release.

It would be much more effective if the object could not cast shadows on itself

It's a bit tricky. That was an older video. Dynamic Shadow/Sun only knows the difference between isHeight and normal.
With changes and writing in what the bridge is called, it works quite well. In my case, it's isBridge.

It depends on how far you want to go. I made extra caster because in original source exist only receiver. When the ymir guys were programming it, they weren't interested in such things at the time.

I mean something like this:

std::vector<CGraphicObjectInstance*> m_ShadowReceiverVector;
std::vector<CGraphicObjectInstance*> m_ShadowCasterVector;

DerUranov97 · December 16, 2025

This should work for everyone. If I have forgotten something and it does not work, please contact me. It is the simple version with isHeight & Normal.
Gyazo: Shadow Bridge

# Shadow System for isHeight Objects

## Overview
isHeight objects (bridges, platforms) receive shadows but do not cast shadows.

## Changes

### 1. ThingInstance.h

**File:** `/src/EterGrnLib/ThingInstance.h`

Add after `bool HaveBlendThing();`:
```cpp
bool	HaveBlendThing();
bool	IsHeightObject();
```

---

### 2. ThingInstance.cpp

**File:** `/src/EterGrnLib/ThingInstance.cpp`

Add after HaveBlendThing() method:
```cpp
bool CGraphicThingInstance::HaveBlendThing()
{
	for (int i = 0; i < m_LODControllerVector.size(); i++)
	{
		if (m_LODControllerVector[i]->HaveBlendThing())
			return true;
	}
	return false;
}

bool CGraphicThingInstance::IsHeightObject()
{
	return (m_pHeightAttributeInstance && m_pHeightAttributeInstance->IsHeightData());
}
```

---

### 3. Area.cpp

**File:** src/GameLib/Area.cpp`

In Refresh() method:
```cpp
if (pObjectInstance->isShadowFlag)
{
	bool isHeightOnly = (pObjectInstance->pAttributeInstance && 
	                     pObjectInstance->pAttributeInstance->IsHeightData());
	
	if (!isHeightOnly)
	{
		m_ShadowThingCloneInstaceVector.push_back(pObjectInstance->pThingInstance);
	}
}
```

---

### 4. MapOutdoorRender.cpp

**File:** GameLib/MapOutdoorRender.cpp`

Struct definition:
```cpp
struct CMapOutdoor_FOpaqueThingInstanceRenderWithShadow
{
	LPDIRECT3DTEXTURE9 m_lpShadowTexture;
	
	CMapOutdoor_FOpaqueThingInstanceRenderWithShadow(LPDIRECT3DTEXTURE9 lpShadowTex) 
		: m_lpShadowTexture(lpShadowTex) {}
	
	inline void operator () (CGraphicThingInstance * pkThingInst)
	{
		if (pkThingInst->IsHeightObject())
		{
			STATEMANAGER.SetTexture(1, m_lpShadowTexture);
			STATEMANAGER.SetTextureStageState(1, D3DTSS_COLORARG1, D3DTA_TEXTURE);
			STATEMANAGER.SetTextureStageState(1, D3DTSS_COLORARG2, D3DTA_CURRENT);
			STATEMANAGER.SetTextureStageState(1, D3DTSS_COLOROP, D3DTOP_MODULATE);
			pkThingInst->RenderWithShadowTexture();
		}
		else
		{
			STATEMANAGER.SetTexture(1, NULL);
			STATEMANAGER.SetTextureStageState(1, D3DTSS_COLOROP, D3DTOP_DISABLE);
			pkThingInst->Render();
		}
	}
};
```

Function call:
```cpp
std::for_each(s_kVct_pkOpaqueThingInstSort.begin(), 
              s_kVct_pkOpaqueThingInstSort.end(), 
              CMapOutdoor_FOpaqueThingInstanceRenderWithShadow(m_lpCharacterShadowMapTexture));
```

---

### 5. AttributeInstance (if IsHeightData() is missing)

**File:** `client source 26.11/src/GameLib/AttributeInstance.cpp`

```cpp
bool CAttributeInstance::IsHeightData() const
{
	if (!m_pAttributeData)
		return false;
	
	return m_pAttributeData->IsHeightData();
}
```

---

## Behavior

**Shadow Receiving:**
- isHeight objects: Receive shadows
- Normal buildings: Do not receive shadows

**Shadow Casting:**
- isHeight objects: Do not cast shadows
- Normal buildings: Cast shadows

'IsHeightData': is not a member of 'CAttributeData'
binary '!': no operator found which takes a left-hand operand of type 'const CAttributeData::TRef' (or there is no acceptable conversion)

remove this (fix) if you add it

	if (CGraphicThingInstance* ti = dynamic_cast<CGraphicThingInstance*>(pInstance))
	{
		if (ti->IsObjectHeight())
			return;
	}
