Hi all I’m hoping folks can help with an age old question. There is one final bit of shadow pop-in that I’m finding hard to fix. I seem to have fixed everything else (thanks to people's lovely help and suggestions). Its the specific type of shadows on housing. In my zoomed-in screenshot you can see where the shadow pops in, and where it hasn’t yet popped in. I’ve heavily modded my ini file, with a long draw distance of about 30 for foliage and shadows and all other LOD. I use this too: r.DFDistanceScale=10 r.AOMaxViewDistance=20000 Nothing else in the game is affected by pop-ins or shaders anymore. Everything else is perfect. All the trees, plants, bushes and major assert shadows (lampposts, fences, cars etc) all work wonderfully. I’ve played the route constantly so to the old tip of running the line a few times until the shaders are fully compiled wont be relevant anymore. Everything works. All except these specific type of shadows popping in. Is there a way I can get them to load-in instantly or is there a way I can get these specific shaders to draw but at a huge distance away so the pop in isn’t noticeable? Huge thank you in advance. ---------------------- Im on a PC 64GB of DDR5 Ram 4TB SSD Intel core i9 -14900K Nvidia RTC 5060Ti 16GB
As far as I'm aware the shadow distance is hardcoded but if you're on PC you can try this mod and see if this helps Better Shadows - Train Sim Community
