Why LongShadow 2 Stands Out

• GPU Acceleration + Quality Anti-Aliasing: Experience real-time performance with smooth edges.

• Texturing & Mapping Flexibility: Use external layers as texture controls (1D or 2D) to drive transparency, masking, or custom gradients inside the shadow.

• Brute-Force Directional Mode: Preserve semi-transparent elements with more accurate shadows—even for overlapping, translucent layers.

• Soft Shadow Mode & Post-Smoothing: Add realism or stylization with soft falloff, plus smoothing to eliminate aliasing artifacts.

• Dedicated “SoftShadow” Plugin: A lightweight version with streamlined controls for solid, soft shadows when you don’t need the full feature set.
