Help: Shadows are pitch black.

sounds broken …
sounds like a reoccurring broken on your end lol … do a quick test, import a heightmap to a new mod … just toss in: heightmap (random one from google), directional light, atmos fog, and, global process thing to make it all work … start a test, see if you fall into the world. if you dont, then fix your map. if you do, we can narrow it down to something else.
