I have tried to work out how to get the shadows with the wind effect into DBP, as shown in the "Tree it" program but no luck so far, i suspect it's made with a shader and a shadow cam.
I have tried to use "set shadow shading on" but it just results in a kind of undetailed shadow with no wind effects, so if anyone knows how to do it, help will bee appreciated.

this? http://www.evolved-software.com
you basicly need to combine the "Tree" and "Cubic Shadow Mapping" sample projects found in the Shaders section on that site. i can't do it, so have fun with that.

"Apply Cube Map To Object" is not in my help file. it is used in those projects, maybe someone can clarify it's use?
