Rate and leave a thumbs up if you like it!

This adds projected texture shadows that look pretty good most of the time. The shadows may be disabled or configured in the Meeper tab of the spawnmenu. Some settings require you to disable then re-enable shadows to apply them.

There is also a section for server owners to override shadow brightness and darkness values. See below.

WARNING: SHADOWS WILL ONLY BE VISIBLE WHEN YOUR GMOD SHADOWS ARE SET TO HIGH
WARNING 2: ANY FOG RELATED ADDONS (might) MESS THIS UP

You will have to adjust brightness and darkness for different maps. The default configuration is for gm_construct. Some tested example presets are shown below:

gm_construct - 1000 bright, 1 dark
gm_flatgrass - 1000 bright, 1 dark
gm_ultrabox - 100 bright, 10 dark

Ah I see. A little price to pay I guess! Thanks for making this addon by the way, no idea how it runs so well but looks so good!

yeah thats just how it is, im not quite sure how to do that

Hey, I am really enjoying this addon, it looks super nice and runs great! But I am having a little problem with it; the playermodel's shadow doesn't render. I turned off all fog/shadow related addons, but it still doesn't work. Only thing rendering is the weapon shadow, so I tried using other playermodel shadow addons but they don't help either. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks in advance.
