Dynamic blob shadow ?

[Efrye]

There are a few options. I usually get the World Normal and extract the B channel and use that as a mask. That way only upwards facing polys get affected strongly which tends to help. You could also try masking by things like shading model.

Sorry for the necropost, but can anyone help me out with this? 's “worldposition behind translucency” method is working great, but I can’t figure out either of the two options he mentioned for preventing the shadow from affecting the character.
