Hello everyone. I enabled dynamic light by setting directional light and a mesh to movable. Then I added cascades and configured all things by Lighting Troubleshooting Guide. But result is awful:
What is wrong? Thanks.
What is wrong? Thanks.
How did you ‘add cascades’, surely that’s the default.
Does your mesh look in the mesh editor?
Does it look ok if you use a standard mesh, like the cube?
I added cascades in “Cascaded shadow maps” section in directional light settings. Mesh (in Maya) is ok, no artifacts. But standart cube looks normal:confused:
Yes you are right, problem is with cascades. In my first screenshot, number of cascades was 4. Here number of cascades is 1:
P.S. sorry for my bad english
Yes, but cascade = 1 is crap 
Have you tried turning off distance fields ( project settings… )
Yes, I tried to turn it off and on, no results:(
Hmmmm… tried it a with a large cylinder. Distance fields on, dynamic skylight and directional light. I can’t get these artifacts.
I guess it could be to do with your import workflow. Are you just dumping an FBX from Maya?
Have you tried Datasmith?
I agree, maybe the problem is connected with exporting. I just used “export to fbx”. I will try “send to unreal” option in maya
This is due to Shadow Biasing
Here’s a big thread on this issue Dynamic shadows artifacts - Feedback for Unreal Engine team - Unreal Engine Forums
One of the easiest “fixes” is to use more geometry.
