Today I tried to export a scene with this behavior and I couldn't reproduce it. Don't know why. Now the Light isn't casting any shadow anymore o.O

I am going to try to reproduce this issue. Anyway in few days I want to relase a new beta that perhaps could fix this problem because it use a new Octane core libs.

I tried it with an hdri environment. And I had no problems with shadows, using a diffuse material to the ground.Settings from render kernel: (bool) alphashoadows enabled.
Material properties: diffuse white, invert transmission at 1;1;1, and bool matte enabled.
The shadow actually looks really real

The problem was only there if you had emissive surfaces in the mesh. But it's fixed now anyway.
