Change shadow distance at runtime?

[Silicon Power]

Hi I need to change shadow distance at the runtime is there any action to do this for me?

Hi.
I did a quick search and from what I understand you can't change it directly.

what might be possible is to setup different quality settings.
Then Set Quality Level (Ecosystem) to change

Hi thank you. Can you please make a playmaker action from this? I use default render pipleline

Thanks for the link.The shadow remains unchanged. While searching online for writing an essay draught since I don't know how to do it. I asked my friend and he told me to visit this site right here writinguniverse.com/essay-draft that will instructs me on how to do it. This helps me to complete my essay assignment on the time and I will write my essay easily.

Sure. Here you go:

Code: [Select]

using UnityEngine;

namespace HutongGames.PlayMaker.Actions
{
[ActionCategory("QualitySettings")]
[Tooltip("Sets the Shadow Distance from the Project Quality Settings at runtime.")]
public class SetShadowDistance : FsmStateAction
{
[RequiredField]
[Tooltip("The Shadow Distance to set.")]
public FsmFloat shadowDistance;

[Tooltip("Repeat every frame while the state is active.")]
public bool everyFrame;

public override void Reset()
{
shadowDistance = 0f;
everyFrame = false;
}

public override void OnEnter()
{
DoSetShadowDistance();

if (!everyFrame)
{
Finish();
}
}

public override void OnUpdate()
{
DoSetShadowDistance();
}

public void DoSetShadowDistance()
        {
QualitySettings.shadowDistance = shadowDistance.Value;
}
}
}
Action is also attached so just drag it into your project. I tested it in my project and seems to work fine. I also added a 'everyframe' bool option so you could tween it if needed over time.

Cheers!
