Attached Link: silhouettes in P5 thread.

bb, couldn't you just set the translucent value and colour of the prop and not have to bother with a node?  I did that once to show someone how to get a silhouette in P5 in this thread from 3 years ago. I'm sure that way isn't limited to shadow-mapped shadows either. Or does the fastscatter node do a better job? If so, why? I'm always willing to find out more about the uses/advantages of the various nodes.
