Half-life 2 shadow bugs (funny screenshot inside)

[HamsterErik]

the shadows in this game is so buggy, is it really supposed to look like this?

in many areas of the game the shadows of the enemies can be seen on walls that they are behind

look at the pic!

Yes the shadows are sometimes stupid. In CSS its a major bug sometimes because I can see people's positions because of these impossible shadows.

The shadow problem has been there since the first E3 showing of HL2, and yet it still wasnt fixed. One reason I recall reading was because it was simply too hard, and would require major reprogramming of the engine.

Yeah, guess if you wanted to see some REAL shadows you'd have to ditch that POS and go to Doom 3 LOLZ!!!11 HL2SUXDOOM3ROX!!!

Just playin', of course. I wouldn't be registered in this forum otherwise.

Though written very noobish (yes i know u where just kidding) there is truth in your words, doom 3 DOES have superior shadows over HL²

And yes I too liked HL² way more than D3 due to the gameplay and enviroments etc.
