I turn shadows off anyway, they dont reall work that well (They do not reflect what you are wearing/wielding. Also shadows of people on a second story can be seen on the ground below them EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A FLOOR IN THE WAY.) Not only does it slow the game down, it actually DETRACTS from the game. So you arent missing much <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
