GBJim Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I downloaded a F-101 Voodoo today by Bob Chicilo, and it casts no ground shadow, while all other planes do. Any one, please help ? Jim Happiness is FSX Steam and Windows 7 . :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Jim - When you have the plane sitting on the runway, select options, settings, then display, then aircraft, and then I believe there is an option you can select for the aircraft to cast it's own shadow.

GBJim Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 Yes, that option has been selected, and works for all other aircraft, except for this one. Jim Happiness is FSX Steam and Windows 7 . :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Strange, thought I had an answer for you, but, I guess not! I am sure someone might have that magical answer? Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downwind66 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Jim - I was just looking at both your pics in the screenshot forum and the video, and shadows are being shown, where are you not seeing shadows? Not that it will help me find an answer, I am just curious? Rick :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBJim Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) OK Rick, here we go. Both the following pics were taken within minutes of each other. It's the second Voodoo that I have installed by Bob Chicilo, that's failing to cast a shadow. As you can see in my bottom pic, with Bob's Voodoo installed, no shadow. The first pic with Mr. Henk Schuitemaker Voodoo is OK. Shadow No Shadow.

ColR1948 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I once saw this in FS9, I may be wrong but I think is in the model itself not anything you can do with the program to make them show, but like I said this was in FS9 FSX might be different.

Downwind66 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 So sorry, Jim, I wasn't paying attention to the opening of THIS post, no shadow with the Bob Chicilo download. I kept going back to your new download pics and video and I was seeing shadows, but, that aircraft is okay! I agree with Col above thinking it might be part of the model. If that's the case, accept it for what it is or delete it and go on to enjoying the newer download. JMHO !! Rick :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Check for reflections in a mirror! VAMPIRE! I agree, probably due to the model. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBJim Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 I'll accept that. If Mr. Zip says he suspects the model ...... Then it must be true. I'm dumping it ! Happiness is FSX Steam and Windows 7 . :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
