For the most accurate "soft edged" shadows, you want to use ray-traced shadows, not depth-mapped shadows.

With this type of shadow, the amount of blurring will change depending on how far the shadow is from the shadow casting object.

Depth-mapped soft shadows don't do this - they have the same amount of blur regardless of how far the light has travelled.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
