This is the same WEB Player, on different computers to see the Shadow Effect

Not reading and ignoring documentations is by definition no bug I fear :wink:
You should commonly use a short board search before reporting bugs, would have saved you and UT the time of the false bug report.

Point light types in Unity 3 only have dynamic shadows in deferred rendering.
With forward rendering a single directional light will cast shadows.

you can switch the rendering path in the player settings

in deferred rendering,Point light types in Unity 3 haven’t any shadows.

you can switch the rendering path in the player settings

i have switch rendering path in the player settings ,but the bug still be .

Publish a project file with the same procedure, using this program for testing, and some can be seen on the computer
Shadows, and some computers can not see the Shadows, which reflect a Bug

I already answered you here (read past the first sentence, please).

You need Unity Pro for shadows. Also, cameras have their own forward/deferred settings.

Make sure the camera render path is set to “deferred” or “use settings”, not only the player settings.
Deferred rendering requires using a Shader Model 3.0 compliant graphics card, ie old graphics card (pre 2004-ish) will revert to forward render path where pointlights don’t support shadows. This would make pointlight-shadows work on some machines but not others!
Also, read the renderpath-documentation, where this is all clearly stated.

He Did list the camera render path as “Defferred” He clearly stated that in the video and i am using unity 5 pro and having the same problem :frowning:

Same issue. NO SHADOW from spotlight, with any rendering mode:(.
