[osg-users] How does shadow technic work if geometry shaders are in use

[Sebastian Messerschmidt]

Hi Nick,

I failed to use the default Shadow-Mapping techniques in a deferred 
rendering context. I never fully understood how to "split" the 
shadow-map generation into later binding the resulting texture to my 
actual lighting/shadowmapping part.
Any insights on this?
Basically I've got multiple passes, one of which should create the 
shadowmap(s) and another others which need access to the resulting 
textures and states (in terms of an unifom for the matrix)


Cheers
Sebastian
