Steps to reproduce the bug: Create a prim and uncheck "Cast Shadows" in object editor's "Object" tab.
Observed results: Shadows remain.
Expected results: Shadows begone.

inverse bug

And now, just the opposite, thanks to Kitten Lulu for mentioning it after asking: From: Kitten Lulu Anyone knows how shadows are cast? It seems to me that they only work on terrain and for big objects. Steps to reproduce the bug: Create a 10m3 prim. Toggle "cast shadows" in object editor's "object" tab. Observed results: No shadow either way. Expected results: Shadow with "cast shadows" on, no shadow with "cast shadows" off. Is it really that difficult? |

Doh! Stupid SL didn't save my "all local lights + shadows" preference when I changed it from the login screen (possible bug). With it on, ground shadows still occur as in the original bug but don't appear on a prim unless it's at least 1.338m x 1.33 x 1.33m, oddly. X or Y can be 1.338 but if the other 2 are less than 1.33 (like 1.329), the shadow disappears. Even more oddly, if Z is 1.338 and the other axes are 1.33, no shadow appears.
Prims (only transparent, shiny, and/or bumpmapped) also tend to flicker (not the overlapping transparent poly issue) a lot when zooming in/out (and even not if the cam is alt-focused on a prim either).
