[CLOSED AND FIXED] Aircraft do not cast a shadow anymore.

[Maulkin]

I compared the cold start P-51D mission between v1.2 and v1.5 and confirmed that with v1.2 the P-51, trucks, and Su-25 all cast a shadow on the ground, but in v1.5 they do not. I checked my shadows config and I had this problem with both Ultra and High shadows. I have also enabled flat terrain shadows.

 

Note in this picture with two Mi-8's the one on the right casts a shadow, which is a static object, but the one on the left does not, which is the player's aircraft:

So far I have been able to reproduce this with all aircraft I own, which is all but two modules at this point.

+1

 

Found the same with all of my modules. No player controlled aircraft cast a shadow irrespective of "shadow setting".

 

Best,

It's been reported, but meanwhile, turn the "flat terrain shadows" off - that will solve the problem for now (might cause a performance hit though).

Glad this one has been reported. I took a couple of screenshots in order to post a new thread. Now no need.

 

The aircraft casts shadows on itself, but not on the terrain.......
