Megascans trees with nanite and virtual shadow maps glitch

I have problem with shadows and Megascans trees. When nanite and ray tracing are enabled, trees are moving (with the wind) but shadows don’t, without ray tracing shadows are moving but some of them (like small branches shadows) disappear when camera is moving towards the trees, and there Is weird grid-like looking glitch, some of the shadows are “cut”.

Workaround I found is changing shadows map method from virtual shadow maps to shadow maps and turning off ray tracing. Is there a way for nanite, ray tracing and virtual shadow maps to work with Megascan trees?

Same problem here… Not sure if there’s a solution for this but haven’t found it yet.

Pretty new to UE and trying to figure out how to get animated shadows from Megascan Trees using Raytraced shadows.

(“Evaluate World Position Offset in Raytracing” checkbox
does NOT work)

Yes! the checkbox didn’t work for me as well. It seems to solve most of the shadow issues for everyone else though. Did you solve it?
