Stencil shadows on statics? Nice! This'd be a great benefit for TGE users, in terms of a little bit of graphical niceness...

Oops I forgot I modified my code base to allow self shadows. I had done this back in TGEA 1.03. The version I did for that is up on TDN.

...Self-shadowing is enabled in recent builds of TGEA, no? At least, it happens on Players.
