Recently I've noticed VERY PIXELATED SHADOWS.

What causes that, and how do I fix that?

Here are some settings:

  • Preference:  Max Real-time Map Size:  2048x2048
  • Light01:  Directional... Shadow... Self-Cast Shadow... Resolution 1024x1024... Bias -10

Why does the shadow look like it's from a 1980 8-bit Atari game?  Is it because of the prop that receives the shadow, the light, the avatar, or some other setting?
