ShadowFix

Megabonk mod which enables Unity's dynamic shadows in-game

Why?

Megabonk has dynamic shadow quality settings in the menu:

Those settings work just fine for the shadows in the main menu:

However, there are no shadows in-game!

This could have been an artistic decision or maybe something done for better performance, but with this mod at least you have a choice.

Mod settings

The mod has 5 settings in its config file (located at (GameDirectory)/BepInEx/config/ShadowFix.cfg)

DisableBlobShadow (DEFAULT: True)

Disable the player circle (blob) shadow.

EnablePlayerShadow (DEFAULT: True)

Enable dynamic shadows for the player.

Note: You can have both of them on or off at the same time without issues.

TwoSidedShadows (DEFAULT: True)

Makes it so scene objects have two-sided shadow rendering. Fixes some shadow artifacts mostly present on Desert houses.

EnableNPCShadows (DEFAULT: False)

Enable shadows for enemies. Disabled by default because it has a few small visual artifacts when enemies die and it's not recommended for low end devices.

ShadowDarkness (DEFAULT: 0.8)

Darkness of the dynamic shadows.

1.1.2

• NPC shadows are now enabled by default. You can still disable them through the config file.
• Enemy dissolve effect now properly has no shadows and no SSAO (this is an issue still present in the base game).

1.1.1

• Fixed player blob shadow being visible for a split second when spawning when DisableBlobShadow is enabled.

1.1.0

• MAJOR code revision, reimplemented most stuff in a much safer way.
• Fixed crashes present in 1.0.x.

1.0.0 - 1.0.6

• If you currently have one of these versions and experience crashes when restarting or starting a run, please update to 1.1.x or higher because my code for those versions was quite trash and any missing object reference crashed the game.
