No Dynamic shadows with lightprobes

HAWK12HT

Hi, so using dynamic object (car) single lightmap. one direct light and lightprobes

Cars shadow is cast on static meshes fine, problem happens when the car is under another dynamic object (Bridge Beams). Although its static bridge but it has to be set dynamic to cast realtime shadows on other dynamic objects (car)

This setup works fine as long as I dont set my car to use Lightprobes. the moment I check lightprobes options dynamic bridge dont cast shadow on top of car.

Any ideas whats going on..

Light probes are a form of baked lighting, so it doesn't do shadows.

Aye but why that dynamic object has its own shadow casting on ground (terrain)

Farfarer

Because the ground isn't using light probes and so is able to receive shadows...

HAWK12HT

o.O Ah so in other words the dynamic object using probes will not have shadows on it from another object but will only cast shadow on other meshes.

Ok cool, thank you for your help .
