the old custom vrad is no longer needed as the change it had made was merged into the latest version of gmod, you can use vanilla gmod's vrad and use the compile option "-bouncefromnamed" instead now

SnabbSpelare, both of Xenthio's executables vrad.exe and vrad_dll.dll are 32-bit as the executable format is PE32 (32-bit) instead of PE32+ (64-bit).

Xenthio, since I'm using Hammer++ 64-bit and the 64-bit Garry's Mod Chrome Beta branch, the custom vrad you provided seems to be 32-bit (speculation). Could you consider providing a 64-bit version of the vrad to ensure compatibility with 64-bit Garry's Mod Hammer++ version, or perhaps suggest a method for using the 32-bit vrad alongside the 64-bit config in 64-bit hammer++??

dithered is the word im looking for i think.

Really love this addon, but a few things could be tweaked:

There's a shadow issue—some brushes have a missing or bleeding shadow at the base. Hard to explain, only a video or screenshot would show it right. I've also noticed shadows under NPCs faces like their nose shadows look

Would be nice if it disabled itself when there's no env_sun.

Quick question—any chance of something similar for indoor lighting? Like an equivalent to light entities?

@KPCostigan turn shadows to high
KPCostigan Apr 15 @ 3:43pm 
but when I spawn it in it just makes a little bit brighter
KPCostigan Apr 15 @ 3:42pm 
it will not work for me at all. I would just put the CSM in my game and there is no light from the sun

Oh, glad you figured it out!

if the "High" option doesn't exist, you can use these steam launch options to make it show up:
"-force_vendor_id 0x10DE -force_device_id 0x1180"

Hello author, I think I know why, I didn't read your module introduction properly, because I didn't open "The Highest Level of Shadow", but I don't know why, my shadow level is not "high", but still thank you for your reply, thank you!
Xenthio  [author] Apr 10 @ 3:41am 
Do you get any errors in the game console?
老总 Apr 9 @ 4:10pm 
Hello author, when I use Real CSM - Modern Lighting & Realistic Dynamic Shadows, I find that it doesn't work at all. I would like to ask why is that?

you can use the csm_spawnalways 1 console command too
Xenthio  [author] Mar 15 @ 6:35am 
It should be in the settings in the spawnmenu
prince of names Mar 14 @ 1:25pm 
I'm just here to ask how to make it set to automatic enabling because I just don't know how too.
Xenthio  [author] Mar 13 @ 3:28pm

I've re-sent a friend request there @Xenthio.
Xenthio  [author] Mar 9 @ 8:12pm 
@CardBoredBox You'll have to edit those maps and recompile them
Xenthio  [author] Mar 9 @ 8:11pm 
@Judge, sure. Add me.
CardBoredBox Mar 9 @ 6:21pm 
and maybe gm_mallparking if that's alr
CardBoredBox Mar 9 @ 6:20pm

Judge Mar 8 @ 10:35am 
Hi @Xenthio,

I wanted to know if you could add my Discord (__judge) or Steam to discuss your custom VRAD compiler.

Regards,
Judge.

If the map doesnt support csm, it will make the map look worse or downright unplayable.
MagnumForce Mar 7 @ 3:47pm 
I would highly recommend only using this on smaller maps that also support csm, or else it will just kill your fps. Using this on bigger maps will take a TOLL on your fps.

It's the map, not the mod that does that.

Top notch! It really enhances the visuals on supported maps.
Definitely a requirement for anybody trying to get the most out of the source engine all these years later.
