"Why is this a category?" Why are you asking, it obviously is. Don't refer people to the forums. The forums are useless for answering questions, in fact, Ive never had anyone answer any of my questions there, only here on the wiki, which, oddly enough, was designed for that very purpose, so don't even mention the forums as a source of information, they are not. Forums are filled with inane chatter and I don't have the time to trawl through pages of verbiage just to find an answer to one simple question. I asked questions there way back in 2006 and they still haven't been answered, so don't ever tell anyone to try the forums, it's counter-productive and a complete waste of everybody's time, the very opposite of good advice. What purpose do you believe the CS wiki serves? Why do you think it's here? Why would you refer a question to a forum? Why misdirect someone to the wrong place? It's like I ask where the library is and you send me to an asylum, wikis are for information retrieval, forums are for conversations, try not to get them mixed up in future. And NO, shadows are not "...done with ground texture painting or some such." So if you have nothing to contribute here then don't make things worse by leaving behind the wrong information. | "Why is this a category?" Why are you asking, it obviously is.

This article has been marked for deletion. Articles marked with this template will be reviewed by administrators and eventually deleted. Discussion about this decision should take place on this article's talk page.
HOW DO WE GIVE SHADOWS TO STATIC OBJECTS, SUCH AS BUILDINGS??
--Waerloga
- Can no one answer this?
- --Waerloga
- Uhh... why is this a category? Please don't make new categories unnecessarily, they confuse things somewhat. At any rate, in terms of dynamic shadows, I don't think we can. I think all shadows are done with ground texture painting or some such.
- But I could be wrong. Perhaps ask on the Forums?

"Why is this a category?" Why are you asking, it obviously is. Don't refer people to the forums. The forums are useless for answering questions, in fact, Ive never had anyone answer any of my questions there, only here on the wiki, which, oddly enough, was designed for that very purpose, so don't even mention the forums as a source of information, they are not. Forums are filled with inane chatter and I don't have the time to trawl through pages of verbiage just to find an answer to one simple question. I asked questions there way back in 2006 and they still haven't been answered, so don't ever tell anyone to try the forums, it's counter-productive and a complete waste of everybody's time, the very opposite of good advice. What purpose do you believe the CS wiki serves? Why do you think it's here? Why would you refer a question to a forum? Why misdirect someone to the wrong place? It's like I ask where the library is and you send me to an asylum, wikis are for information retrieval, forums are for conversations, try not to get them mixed up in future. And NO, shadows are not "...done with ground texture painting or some such." So if you have nothing to contribute here then don't make things worse by leaving behind the wrong information.

- The Wiki is not for asking questions, it doesn't matter if you never get an answer on the forums. The only exception is when the question is directly related to an article. It's a rule we've decided to follow here. If you wonder why that is, or if you want to discuss it, find the old discussion in the Community Portal.
- Furthermore, DW is right about the shadows. Static objects don't cast shadows, you have to paint them with the landscape editor.
- I'm going to mark this for deletion; it's not a properly stated request and it's a category page while it should be regular page. Categories without articles in them are useless.
