It would be a great feature to have your helmet cast shadows in VR (or even in general, would be useful w/ IR Trackers)
I find myself leaning into the Datalink display of my SU33, trying to block the sun behind me with my head so I can read it, but it seems I don't have a head model!
I don't see this being too hard to implement..add a pilot head model in 1st person mode, at least just to cast the shadow. Seems shadows are already dynamically cast
It would add greatly to realism.
Step 2 would be to move the pilot model shoulders/upper body along with the head
