Casting Shadows from Switchlight Material in Unreal Engine
This is just a quick video of a method I found to cast a shadow from the plane holding your Switchlight created PBR materials (not on by default). It's not a perfect solution and there's some other issues that come up but hopefully this helps anyone move a step forward when troubleshooting.

    Great tutorial, but Gen 3 is a disappointment to me. All backgrounds are cartoonish look like poor-tasting illustrations. Everything is warped and morphed. What about the silly presets? Not a single cinematic or filmic one. Who needs claymation more than photorealistic? Everything is morphed, twisted, and distorted. Dolphins morph with seagulls!

    After this test, I loaded it up in Blender and I can confirm that you can cast shadows from your subject TO other objects and FROM other objects to your subject. So Im sure its possible in UE to do both, its just beyond my current understanding. See test image: th-cam.com/users/postUgkxqgQcLhR2ypVPNOZRGTEJa9ODmG-Y4EFR?si=qFSY3x3fF_3WFUst

      I tested it out and screen recorded. Should be posting the video up later today about it. But I did manage to figure out how to cast shadows from the material just not onto the material. But there's a weird glitch with trying to use the sun (directional light) for it. 100% could be user error though.

      I wonder if you can add volume to the 2d plane and then try to create actual "3d shadows" in unreal engine (like having shadows off to the side of the 2d plane instead off limited to just front and back or even contact shadows with the 3d ground)

    Unless and until it can produce things other than single-actor close-up shots, I don't see it really being a great option for any full-length features. It seems like it's only good at producing one kind of shot and for anything longer than a gif or tiktok short, that'd get rather boring fast.

One of them my eyes were a bit dark so I think it affected things a bit. But it's honestly not much different than their demos. Still just the head moving, which I don't think looks good, as far as for any legitimate filmmaking use goes. As I mentioned in my video you need more nuances across the body in movement to feel real. So far only video to video seems to be able to do that.
