Casting shadows with a 2d sprite

Development Rendering
1

I have ticked every box I can find with cast shadows… When I focus a directional, point or spot light… it just doesn’t cast a shadow on a plane behind it… Any ideas?

I have seen this post, it didn’t seem to help me: Sprite Shadows - Rendering - Unreal Engine Forums

Hi Jimmyt,

Shadow casting for sprites was broken in 4.3 and earlier builds. It is fixed as of the 4.4 preview release and future releases.

If you are using the 4.4 preview and still have problems, can you post a picture of your setup?

Cheers,
