Cannot set shadow quality/distance

Questions & Answers

I have a code that manually sets the ShadowQuality and shadowDistance, there is only one setting about shadows in the quality settings and I’m not sure why some shadow settings like shadowDistance not listed in there (anymore(?)).

Because of this, I manually have to set the unlisted settings with a script, but it doesn’t seem to work at all.

QualitySettings.shadows = (UnityEngine.ShadowQuality)ShadowQuality.HardShadows;
QualitySettings.shadowDistance = 1000;
Debug.Log("Applied shadows");

It does print the “Applied shadows” but it does not apply at all.

I’m using 2022.3.5f1 with URP.

How can I solve this?

For URP, the settings are in the URP asset, not the quality settings.
