Question by BTEC_Australian · Jul 17, 2014 at 04:53 PM · shadowsdirectional light

Shadows without directional lighting

Hello again, I am VERY interested to see whether or not you are able to make shadows without directional lighting or without Unity3D PRO. Can anybody suggest something to me?

I have seen a shadow was performed by raycasting. But I don't remember the source, sorry!

If you are just looking for a soft shadow cast by your character, you can use a blob projector.

Realtime hard shadows can be used in unity free I think. As for the directional light, you could use other types of lights ofc. But it's not very clear to me what you're trying to achieve.

If you don't have a directional light, how do you know what direction to cast the shadow in?

Shadows in Unity Free may be done via Projector.
