seems to depend on the used mood how this shadow bug appears:

recorded in canyon

recorded in valley:

The ProjShad is still displayed to wide but it does not apply to all models (see the lagoon car, no projshad bug there f.e.)

We did some extended testings on the maniapark discord (thx yatsu) and came to a possible reason:

Perhaps the scale factor of the FakeShad was accidently deleted in the last update?

ProjShad files are afaik not affected, at least FakeShad with a square (f.e. 1024x1024) size aren´t affected, only these ones which are using rectangular sizes like 1024x512

But i guess you @nadeo already know this 8-)

Well despite all those years I still forget sometimes that there no such thing as a "safe last minute change"...

Thanks for the detailed investigation!

Should be ok now, I pushed a new "maniaplanet.exe".

It also includes a fix for people having trouble downloading packs in low memory situation.
