Struggling with 3D.

I can suggest a good book if you like, however, take a look at @kosmonautgames’s thread:

I had a look at your code, and there is a thing I don’t catch: sometimes you use a linear depth: in DrawBasic_VSOut DrawBasic_VertexShader(DrawBasic_VSIn input) Output.Depth = mul(input.Position, WorldView).z / -FarClip; and sometimes not: infloat4 DrawBasicVSM_PixelShader(DrawBasic_VSOut input) : SV_TARGET float depth = input.Depth.x / input.Depth.y; How can it be possible to compare the 2 values to make shadows ?
