- Does the shadow map encompass the entire ship and if so, how much of that
- ship is in the camera view (in meters)? If you are only looking at 10m of
- a 500m ship, a 2048 shadow map is not as big as you think. What level of
- shadow fuzziness are you using? If you set fuzziness to 0 and see strong
- stair stepping in the shadow edges, your map is probably too small.
