    I cannot whatever settings I put in get the shadows to appear in the cockpit view, in any car.

    Is there a setting i'm not aware of? Shadows set to high, fast blur. Post Processing to medium.

    In fact now i've noticed this, shadows are not being cast on the cars at all either from themselves or environment shadows, shadows are only cast on the track and environment.

    I did not notice this before as was just enjoying the game, but now I do its annoying.

    is there a JSON setting that addresses this? Reinstall? Nvidia setting?

    Running a 1080ti.

    Please help.

    Just seeing other people running the game on videos with it working fine. Old content and the latest content so don't think its a new feature.

    Clear your CBASH and SHADERS folders and try again.

    Thank you that worked! Working in single screen mode anyway, will see if it works in multiview triple screen setup later.

    Just to close this out, I was running sli 1080ti setup with multiview on on triple monitors. Clearing the CBASH and SHADERS folders did not fix the problem while I was in this setup, but when i disabled SLI and ran using a single monitor then cleared those folders, opening the game again it did sort it out. Turning multiview and sli back on again and its working properly again!

    You'll know if there is a problem with your setup as when you are sat in the garage there are no shadows cast at all in the garage, and nothing will cast on the players car either looking from an external view.

    Game looks great now!
