Look under 'Files > Preferences' you may need to re switch stuff on like dynamic lighting etc...

It would help if you pasted your setup.ini as Red Eye mentioned. Maybe we can find something that you're overlooking.

Dynamic shadows have nothing to do with static shadows.


Make sure your lightmapping=1, and lightmapold=0. Change those settings, save, and restart your computer.

Exit FPSC, open the setup.ini, and change the "lightmapquality=10" to something like 50 or above. Then save, and restart FPSC.

For some reason, each time Lee updates FPSC, he changes the lightmapquality to something less. It gives the impression loading times have been reduced, but the shadows look rubbish.

that isnt quite true

For example. you have a light source and then your shadowsquality on highest settings. but you ambience is also on high (this would make a sun that lights up everything. So it also will light up your shadows. Then you got no shadows. Hope you understand me.

Red Eye,

A eye on you,
