This is how SC looks into a virtual machine. Look well because, you arent going to see other shadows. 😀 There is hope yet as some shadows are seen. This means it's not a shadow buffer issue. It's a driver and DX.

this as "proof" is a little flawed methinks? All Virtual Machines right now for gaming use WINE-like code (actually in most cases, literally WINE code) to wrap Direct3D 9+ calls (and OpenGL calls) to OpenGL... Maybe I misunderstand the point of your comment.

Hey I'am not saying that the game works in a VM. I'am saying that some shadows can be seen (and the game was not set for projector shadows).It's set for shadows buffers
My logic is : if some shadows can be seen then with some driver/wrapper fixes it may be possbile to fix the missing shadows. That's all.

Ok I found the video, and you are correct!
This is at 104 x 768 resolution:
I use dgVoodoo v2.53. It seems to emulate the Geforce 4 Ti correct:
BUT:
I don't think the light beams are this way correct:
"Normal" shadow bug on the dead soldier?
?
Missing light beams with buffer mode, Kola Cell bonus mission. I'm not surprised. They seem graphical rough overall.
🤣 for the nick, new comrade user 😁 Welcome!

What level is this? I'll check right now.
OK, it's T'iblisi ("Meet the contact" objective), but where exactly?
Yes, I got the same (with a GeForce 1050 Ti and the lastest dgVoodoo release):
Do we get someone who can test that spot with a GeForce 4 Ti system?
Shadows are correct but the light shafts penetrate Sam.
And for Kola there's some problems about the lighting system and the camera angle (in some spots):
But maybe that point of the map is not intended to be seen in complete dark (there are sensor beams all around switching the lights on).

Lol thank you.

Okay. I have a Radeon HD 4870. It's the same with the penetrating light shafts in the Playstation 3-version of the game.

I do not understand.
That part of Kola is AFTER a well hidden motion laser sensor (you can jump on the wall to avoid it but it's unlikely to be seen the first time you play the map). Passing through the sensor activates the lights.

Shadows fade out on this spot:

There must be light beams with lights on too.
Good game but questionable portation. Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance (Xbox-portation too) has less problems today. 😘
On the grid is no glass. That is correct but the game attaching this kind of reflection mapping to the grid, you find it otherwise on windows.
But it seems weird on the Xbox (or is it Xbox 360?) too: https://youtu.be/AivID1nVcCs?t=12m38s.
