Property Value

Type: Single
The minimum light distance from the camera frustum. The default value is 100.

Remarks

To compute the shadow map an orthographic projection is fitted to the partial frustum of a cascade. The near plane of this orthographic projection should be moved as close as possible to the cascade - but not too close in order to catch occluders in front of the cascade. MinLightDistance defines the minimum allowed distance of the shadow projection near plane from the cascade.
