ShadowSystem.filter

Summary

ShadowSystem.filter selects hard comparison sampling or percentage-closer filtering for received shadows. The default is "pcf".

Syntax

ShadowSystem.filter: "hard" | "pcf"
wgpu.effects.shadows.filter = "hard";

Parameters

This property does not take call parameters; assign "hard" or "pcf" to set it.

Returns

"hard" | "pcf" - Current receiver filtering mode. The default is "pcf".

Type Details

type ShadowFilter = "hard" | "pcf";

"hard" performs one depth comparison per shadow lookup. "pcf" selects the renderer's percentage-closer-filtered receiver path. Changing the filter increments revision but does not mark stored shadow-map contents dirty.

Example

const shadows = wgpu.effects.shadows;
shadows.filter = "hard";
console.log(shadows.filter); // hard

Notes

Changing the filter changes the receiver pipeline variant but does not require regenerating a manual-update shadow map.
