Wonder what was wrong with Granary's skybox. I know Foundry's has an issue with the blue silos not being in shadow like they're supposed to; maybe it was something like that?

Adjusted player shadows to reduce shadows casting through walls

Is this an engine change or a cp_granary change? If an engine change, I'm supposing that snakewater won't be cursed by shadows as well, right?

They probably just added some of those "don't cast shadows on this brush" entities, whatever they're called.

Or adjusted the angle so they don't go out as far anymore.

You mean the info_no_dynamic_shadow entity?
