    Hello, I'm sure I'm missing something obvious but for some reason I cannot get my Shadow Caster 2D to work. I am using Unity 2020. Attached are a couple screenshots from my game so far. I have a point light, and I set up Shadow Caster 2D with the outline on the tree. From all of the tutorials I see online, it should work as long as the shadow intensity is above zero, but I'm getting no shadow effect. Any help would be much appreciated! upload_2022-4-28_20-18-16.png upload_2022-4-28_20-18-55.png

    From what I can see you've set it up properly.

    Are you using the latest version of 2020.3 with Universal RP 10.9.0? I did see an issue like this with an older version of 2020.3 and Universal RP.
