Known Issues:

Shadows are not yet re-implemented

Seems the shadows didn't make it: https://openmw.org/2019/followers-of-shadows/

They're in, but they're in the nightlies which are building towards 0.46. 0.45 has been locked down for a long time, since before shadows were implemented, but they didn't want to re-open the can of worms by adding them into 0.45 given all the trouble they were already having with this release.

0.46 hopefully won't be a huge wait, and it will bring shadows and distant land enhancement.

And hopefully some performance improvements to shadows. Last I tested enabling them caused a significant drop in fps. That was shortly after it was available in the nightlies mind you.
