Self Does Not Cast Shadows

[J]

Whether it's outside or around a fire, one's self does not cast shadows. You can see shadows of other objects and players around you, but you can't see your own shadow.

[James Wright]

Not really a bug. the reason for this is due to there not being a player there to cast shadows currently. Usually in these kinds of games where it's 3rd person or 1st, you still see the shadow from the 3rd person character. Something we've discussed but no immediate plan to implement own shadows right now.
