Okay, this is a teachable moment for me, several experienced shadow people here.

First, I have been really studying the effect of varying
the map size, and am finding the range for my low-light
situation and medium-soft shadows. It's around 480, as in this
frame from an animation I am working on:

But now I'll reveal that I have no idea what
the shadow cam is, or what a point light is.
Just from what's in Nance's post, I am investigating.
Please don't feel any of you have to write an
essay or a DrGeep tutorial, but a few sentences
on each item would send me on my way.

Thank you from a shadow worshiper.
