Question: if you use a "qube map" than you will have overlaping areas right? Also the corners of that map are not "exact" probably? Would it be possible or maybe better to have a 2 pherical maps one for each hemisphere? or will the shades be to much distorted converting back from the spherical shadow texture to the view?

[@JakobKenda]

my guess is spherical maps aren't used because there isn't a way to store them in a buffer

So what if you have multiple point lights? Do you just do the same thing for each light? And if there is 1 (or more) directional lights too?

[@adheesh2secondsago630]

Yes! Sad reality

I have tried tinkering with this for a week now and seriously cannot get it to work. Once I get it running, no shadows are showing up and the light is not omni-directional

I hate it when people use so many of their own made classes,make nonsense for education purpose.
