Enable Grass Shadows

Is there anyway to enable grass to cast shadows using Creation Kit? Grass is the only foliage which doesn't cast shadows, and I can't seem to find any settings to enable this (if there is any).

Is grass just 'special', such that it's not like other foliage (bushes, trees, etc.)?

There are a # of un-shown ini setting available. Here the ones for grass:

[Grass]
bAllowCreateGrass=0
bAllowLoadGrass=0
bDrawShaderGrass=0
bGenerateGrassDataFiles=0
bGrassPointLighting=0
fGrassDefaultStartFadeDistance=0.00
fGrassFadeRange=0.00
fGrassMaxStartFadeDistance=0.00
fGrassMinStartFadeDistance=0.00
fGrassStartFadeDistance=0.00
fGrassWindMagnitudeMax=0.00
fGrassWindMagnitudeMin=0.00
fTexturePctThreshold=0.00
fWaveOffsetRange=0.00
iGrassCellRadius=0
iMaxGrassTypesPerTexure=0
iMinGrassSize=0

Add any of these to your custom.ini file in documents\fallout4\custom.ini. If file doesn't exist, then create it. If your using mods, then it should be there. All ini changes

should be made to custom.ini, do not edit the games other ini's. The custom.ini overrides all other ini files. Don't know which will give shadow to grass. But I would start with:

iMaxGrassTypesPerTexure= try 7 to 15
iMinGrassSize=0 20 is game default. The high the # the less grass you will have. Acceptable vales are 10-100

Also make sure these three are there.

bAllowCreateGrass=1
bAllowLoadGrass=1
bDrawShaderGrass=1

Check your fallout4.ini file "create grass should already be set there correctly. Again don't change any ini except custom.ini. And after your done editing custom.ini. Set it to read only.

These are the only settings I'm aware of. This doesn't mean there aren't others that I'm not aware of at this time. Hope this helps solve your issue.
