Shadow disapeared on Instanced Objects away from camera

The PR is merged into the main repo. You can build the engine from the master branch and add the below code to disable instance culling. It should resolve the shadow issue you described.

InstancedGeometry.setInstanceCullingFunction(null);

Or you can implement your own instance culling function.

Edit:

Instruction to build engine

A built-in way to control animation looping, Finally!

Note: building the SDK is tricky but building the engine is pretty straight forward if you already have git, jdk, etc. installed: git clone https://github.com/jMonkeyEngine/jmonkeyengine.git cd jmonkeyengine.git gradlew install …or if you are not using gradle/maven for your builds and need the actual jars, I think “gradlew dist” still works.
