Have you encountered an issue with lighting in the project where it appears that the camera is surrounded by shadowing of the terrain? I have it in at least two projects, and wherever I go, a shadowing of the terrain is following within a certain radius of the camera. It looks like it’s from the directional light. I tried disabling show flags of distance field shadows, Cascaded SM, DFAO in skylight, and AO in the post process and project settings. None worked except disabling dynamic shadowing in the show flags. But I’m using dynamic shadowing via movable directional and skylight, so I don’t understand where it is coming from.

most likely it’s just the distance of your shadow and your distance field shadow.
