Soft Shadows are hard...
I make a spotlight, I set the shadows to soft, I am using unity pro. Yet... the shadows are just as hard as if I had simply left them set to hard... why is this? There doesn't appear to be any sort of "softness" control on the spotlight...
There are 3 sliders, softness and softness fade, the last control whne the max distance for shadows to become soft
I don't have those settings, I only have these under ShadowType:
Strength //how dark the shadows are
Resolution //whether or not they look like jpegs
Bias //seems to cull my shadows based on camera distance
@$$anonymous$$erihobo Directional lights have softness and softness fade while spotlight dont
Aw, man, seriously??? Okay.... I see it now, thanks... another reason why I should brush up on my C++ and just make the move to UE4 already... do you reckon this will be fixed by Unity 5?
You can make the above comment in to an answer if you like...

isn't a bug, also if i set a spotlight to soft shadows, the shadows are soft, the aren't really soft, but they are soft.
i get that they have a little softness, very vaguely and barely noticeable :/
