I have found an issue with my B1 locos - RSC plus re-skins Dairycoates Namers & B1 Mayflower which I don't recall seeing before - namely the loco & tender
don't throw ground shadows! The accompanying rolling stock does exhibit shadows. If anyone can suggest a remedy would very much appreciate help.
Many thanks
Tom

Re: B1 Loco not throwing shadows
Hi Tom,
This probably means that you do not have Dynamic Lighting enabled (once known as TSX mode).
This means that newer models will not cast shadows. Older models have shadows "built in" and faked instead of real shadows calculated, thus some of the rolling stock could have shadows.
I noticed the same issue years ago with one of ChrisTrains models, and this is the short version of the explanation which I then received.
Kind regards,
--Tim

Hi Tim
Thanks for reply - much appreciated. I have been experimenting with the settings on TS trying to optimize the best results for my Computer.
That explains why I "lost" the shadow effects!
