Hm, it works on my pc. How does it not work on your system? Window/Linux? OpenGL/D3D?

I have the same problem, but it occurs only in fullscreen 32bits. I have tested only with DirectX9.
The DX function CheckDeviceFormat (CVideoDirectX9.cpp) fails when checking stencil buffer compatibility, and then the stencil buffer is disabled.

So, to get shadows, I run my application in 16bits, doesn't make a lot of differencies...

My computer : Athlon 1200+, ATI9200, Catalyst driver 4.2

Look at the sky or fires to see the differences. I hate 16bit modes, only good for legacy.
