    Hey there,

    the thing that bothers me most using URP are the shadows. I'm trying to increase the main directional light's shadow quality by fiddling around with the cascades, but I still end up with sub-par quality for my scenario, even with the maximum shadow resolution of 4096 pixels.

    So I was wondering if I can somehow convince the Universal Render Pipeline to render an 8k shadowmap, instead of 4k. Any idea how to approach this?

    Thanks!

    Looks like it'll be added to 2023.3 as an improvement of shadow quality in URP.
