[Req] shadow mapping plugin

Hi All,
I remember having a shadow mapping .rb that would trace out the shadows of given geometry, but I can't find it. I tried the demo of 1001 shadows but it seems to have trouble with anything but the simplest geometry. What other scripts turn shadows into geometry?

Thanks,

There is many shadow analysis plug for sketchup, but I don't know that one... sorry.

Light illuminating the object
As a result, those objects will form a shadow
I thought so

I probably should have stated that a bit better.

I would like to export shadow lines as vector data in order to create diagrams in illustrator. I could have sworn I had one that would do that, but I think I was thinking of the shade_analysis_tool.rb. I may be able to use that along with livetrace to do what I need.

Thanks though.
