Steam Community :: [PROP] Fence Cast Shadow

Jetzon May 11 @ 1:22pm

This is theoretically a good addon but like the person below is saying, please enable the smoothing so the fences don't look so jagged. Not even the in-game anti aliasing fixes this.

MOTS0 Apr 14 @ 3:25pm

$allowalphatocoverage "1" should be used so smooth edges are enabled on the fences while still keeping the shadows.

i moved the mod to be the first one to load, now it works

Glitch if you have mod that override or conflict with this mod then yes

Glitch. Nov 12, 2024 @ 10:24am

the fence now doesnt make any shadow, is it because of the recent updates? or my graphical settings? (very high) or should i move the mod to be the first one to load?

Dark "Gene" Alex Apr 17, 2024 @ 4:11am

adds realism but gameplay wise it is not advisable

7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ [author] Apr 14, 2024 @ 8:06am

The mod probably changed the fence's model and this mod only work on vanilla fence

@7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ Because I'm subscribed to the following L4D2 mods, https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=312294075&searchtext=Left+4+Dead+2+REMASTERED , and https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2365490433 , I don't see the Fence Cast Shadow mod working on my end. Even though the three of them work and don't conflict with each other within my add-on inventory. With this mod of yours VERY high above them in it. I just wanted to bring this to your attention, mate.

Cool mod, and since we're on the topic of shadows, can you make an inflated coach mod?

7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ [author] Feb 5, 2024 @ 6:58pm

yes

scorb Feb 5, 2024 @ 4:19pm

Does this work online?

7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ [author] Feb 4, 2024 @ 12:38pm

melee weapon has flashlight attachment at 90 degree so the shadow is covered by the mesh you're looking at
other weapon has flashlight at an angle so the shadow is more visible

PauL Feb 4, 2024 @ 11:21am

I noticed one strange thing; When I switch from a main weapon to a melee weapon, the shadows disappear. Only with melee weapons, the rest is ok.

Nom, pampu :'v Feb 4, 2024 @ 11:17am

Also that there were some fences that covered some paths and they had no shade, anyway I saw that you fixed it, thanks for updating :D

SolarStorm327 Feb 3, 2024 @ 10:52pm

oof. at least you found them

7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ [author] Feb 3, 2024 @ 8:39pm

GOD DAMN IT Valve, after investigating Dead Air I found out that there are mutiple vmt of "fence_alpha" that exist in like 3 different folder for NO reason because they point to the same texture
Updated the mod so the Dead Air fence should have shadow now

Gazzer Feb 3, 2024 @ 7:03am

this is what i needed in my life

7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ [author] Feb 2, 2024 @ 8:37pm

@Nompampu Thanks for letting me know I've updated the mod to include it now, it's the black police barricade model right?

Mancio Feb 2, 2024 @ 11:06am

thank you know i can't unsee it

Nom, pampu :'v Feb 2, 2024 @ 10:23am

Incredible mod :D but in some campaigns that also have fences like in Dead Air they don't have shadows

ballfondler589 Feb 2, 2024 @ 2:38am

literally playable!

7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ [author] Feb 1, 2024 @ 7:19pm

Paul I missed a few vmt from other vpks, file is updated now

7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ [author] Feb 1, 2024 @ 1:49am

mod contain only vmt
texture is untouched

Pluvillion Feb 1, 2024 @ 1:07am

Did you, by any chance, play with the texture's alpha channel too?

AmazingCaroline Feb 1, 2024 @ 1:06am

I never noticed such detailed area, however I know I need this when I see your mod!

7ᴇᴍᴘᴇsᴛᴲ [author] Jan 31, 2024 @ 8:45pm

Catmaxxing flashlight can render textures off of grass, leaves and other flat mesh models, this shadow was in HL2 but probably for optimization's sake they've disabled it for L4D

Dune Jumper Jan 31, 2024 @ 2:56pm

Sadly it doesn't work with other reskins.

Dune Jumper Jan 31, 2024 @ 2:42pm

Valve tries not to remove something basic from L4D2 for no reason challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

the ladle Jan 31, 2024 @ 1:55pm

i always assumed this was just due to the chainlink part of the model being a flat wall, kinda surprised you can do this with vmt fixes.
