Hi Nadeo, I would like to know if you are working on this problem. I can't release tracks until this is fixed.

Even if they would have fixed the problem, they are not going to fire and update "just" for this issue. (unless it is a maaaajor issue affecting to many clients)

You have to be patient. You posted the issue on friday 21st @ 18h30 and its monday 24th 20h. I don't know the nadeo(live) offices schedules but only 1 workable days has passed since they could have taken a look at your issue :roll: :thx:

I'm afraid you got me wrong, I'm very patient, I would just like acknowledgement that this problem is being addressed so it will enlighten the waiting. :pop:

I reinstalled the game but the blocky shadows remain. I also stripped down all the light sources in the track but it didn't help. Only after I removed more then half the track the shadows became good. This is a weird bug alright. :roflol:

I wonder if it's the number of track pieces causing this or a certain track piece causing the screwed up shadows.

I removed all the decoration pieces on my track and it still has screwed up shadows. Might start removing track pieces to see if I can narrow down if a certain block is causing the problem.

Maybe this is related?? http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic. ... 70&t=20610

Yes that's it! After removing the 5-5-6 blocks on my bugged tracks the shadows are good. And Fix said it will be fixed. :clap:

Yup that fixed it for me too... was only two 5-5-6 blocks on my track. Removed them and the shadows look fine again! :clap:

Hopefully Nadeo can patch in a fix soon for this... I want to finish up this track and I do actually need those pieces. :)
