Christchurch shadows on runway/shadow

Something I have just noticed is that I don’t have any aircraft shadows cast on the tarmac or runway. When moving onto the grass areas the shadows appear. I have just updated the client only from 4.4 to 4.5 but I can’t say for sure if the same issue existed with 4.4 or not.
Is this a known issue or just peculiar to my set up?
Cheers

Do have have buildings set to receive shadows? Because of the way they're built -- by out-of-work builders -- I think they behave like buildings.

Ah that did the trick thank you. I have been mucking around with 4.5 and settings etc and the building shadow setting must have been changed....not that I would have connected the two.
It's not something you notice until you notice if you get what I mean. Was it always like that just that I never noticed before?
I must say I am quite happy with my current set up. It looks nice and is performing ok. I just updated to the 4.5 client only as I really didn't want to bother reloading all my add ons.
Is there anything in particular in the Content and Scenery modules that is worth upgrading them for?
Cheers
