Shadows on Unity Indie

[steddyman]

Does Unity Indie support any kinds of shadow?

I have a directional light which is positioned to the left and clearly brightening the left side of the scene, but I don’t see any shadows.

Thanks

From “Realtime Shadows”:

Unity Pro supports realtime self-shadowing shadows that just work. With Unity Indie it is of course still possible to use lower-end shadowing techniques, like Lightmaps or Projectors.

Unity indie doesn’t support realtime shadows generated from the lights. Pro does. However, there are still several ways to do simpler shadow effects in Indie - lightmapping, projectors, various ways to do simple blob shadows.
