Free TouchDesigner Project: Rendering Shadows Example Files (Official, Derivative)

Overview

This official TouchDesigner documentation article from Derivative walks through shadows in a 3D scene, starting from the attached 3D_render.toe. The steps cover switching the light to Hard, 2D Mapped shadows, limiting the shadow casters, removing artifacts with the polygon offset, sizing the shadow map and adjusting shadow strength and colour.

Shadow_example.toe is the finished file, and CustomShadows.toe shows a basic custom shadow map setup rendered through the Render TOP. All three files are free direct downloads from docs.derivative.ca.
