Casting shadows not working in Orthographic view?

This is on 4.7P8

I just noticed this recently, and I don’t know how long I’ve had this, but when my camera is in Orthographic, none of my objects cast shadows. It works perfectly in perspective, though.
Orthographic:

Perspective:

4.12 and it’s still a bug.
Vote here, so Epic sees how important it is to us. It’s currently backlogged.

Also need this in my game, guess I’ll get by with a PointLight for now.

Still no shadows in ortho view. and not a single word from Epic if there is a solution or not.

hello, have you found a way to enable shadows in ortho view? The post link seems to provide not much info about how to enable it.
