Quote - The outdoor one?  I think there isn't enough shadow going on in that particular pic to matter.  Do your desktop pic with depthmapped shadows and see how that comes out.

I agree that one would fail, because the depth mapped shadows (as implemented in Poser) do not have variable blur based on distance from occlusion.

Further, I can't even demo that because I used a point light. I can't use a spot light because it doesn't go 180 degrees.

In any case, you're right about the Alyson pic doesn't really need RT shadows because none of them fall far from the occlusion. I used DM for speed - the RT shadow was taking forever through the transparent visor.

I'm not sure why DM shadows do not have a variable blur option. It wouldn't be that hard to implement.
