How to get better shadows
I am not satisfied with the quality of real time shadows in Unity.
Is there a way to tweak them beyond what is possible in the rendering, quality and light options?
I want my shdows to have higher resolution and quality - I care less about performance right now.
How to tweak?

hi,
Are you sure you have properly set the quality settings and shadow settings?
Could you make a screenshot of what you have, it would give clue as to whether it's improvable or not.
see this question, it might help.
Bye,
Jean
I get them exactly like the guy in that thread. Is there a way to make them higher in resolution and aliasing?
I don't post a screenshot because I get them exactly like he does in his screenshots. I suppose this is just the Unity engine's shadows. Can I get inside Unity and tweak them?
Like Eric5h5 recommended in that question, you might have to use cascading shadows. But I could reproduce the chucky quality shadows when tweaking the quality settings and back, so I think you can improve on your shadow resolution quality setting if you do have the same results as Ullala currently.
