artificing when global sun shadow resolution set above 2048p #8

when global sun shadow resolution is set above 2048p, and shadow softening is set to maximum, there is sometimes artifacts in distant shadows. the problem gets worse as resolution increases

all my settings are set to max (except ao, set to minimum), and i have an rx7600 gpu, if that matters

This is an issue with the strongest softening setting and the cascade settings. Tweaking the cascade settings will probably fix this, but the behavior of the "softest" shadow setting isn't very good (even without better shadows, pointing the camera in different directions has strange behavior,) so I would suggest not using it.
