I am working on a game with C++ and OpenGL 3.2. I have successfully implemented directional shadow maps and now I'd like to upgrade them to shadow cube maps (for point lights). I've done some Googling and I can't seem to find much solid info on how to achieve this.

Can anyone give me some pointers and maybe links to articles on the subject that I may have missed? Thanks.

What you are looking for is called "Omnidirectional Shadow Mapping". Google has lots of hints for that.

A good idea would be to highlight the most relevant links you find on Google. – Laurent Couvidou Dec 14 '12 at 9:58
Thanks Dudeson, I was under the impression that it was called shadow cubemapping and mentally filtered all results without the words "cube" in it when I Googled. – Jishaxe Dec 14 '12 at 12:04
No problem man! – Dudeson Dec 15 '12 at 23:05
