The D24X8_SHADOW field is a member of the ImageFormat enumeration in the Sandbox namespace. This field represents a specific image format used for depth and shadow mapping in graphics rendering. It is a 24-bit depth format with an 8-bit stencil component, optimized for shadow mapping applications.
Use ImageFormat.D24X8_SHADOW when you need to specify a depth format for shadow mapping in your rendering pipeline. This format is particularly useful in scenarios where high precision depth information is required for accurate shadow rendering.
// Example of using ImageFormat.D24X8_SHADOW in a rendering setup
// Assuming you have a rendering setup function
void SetupShadowMapping()
{
// Create a texture for shadow mapping
var shadowTexture = new Texture2D(1024, 1024, ImageFormat.D24X8_SHADOW);
// Configure the texture for use in shadow mapping
shadowTexture.SetFilterMode(FilterMode.Bilinear);
shadowTexture.SetWrapMode(WrapMode.Clamp);
// Use the texture in your rendering pipeline
// This is a simplified example and actual usage may vary
RenderToTexture(shadowTexture);
