Does anyone know the way to solve the problem that occurs when the shadow of the car in certain sections of the track moves like a spring, generating a boring visual annoyance

Can you show an image of the problem. Its very difficult to fix things without lots of info. Is it in rFactor?

 The shadow that follows the car in RFactor bounces like a spring in some points of the track, and this is not due to the car I'm sure. The track has only the main road with no objects that can interfere. I think AIW is the culprit in some parameter although I don't know which one LINK : www.mediafire.com/file/99r2zjca4o3j0kw/test+Monza_f1c.rar/file |

I can't drive the track that you uploaded. The first error was in the .scn file the track had SearchPath=F1classic
SearchPath=F1classic\Monza_f1cI changed it to SearchPath=Monza_f1c
SearchPath=Monza_f1c\Monza_f1cThe track loaded but the car was not on a driving surface. It looks like an unfinished conversion.  |

Just skip the qualifying and do the race directly, the car starts from the start

I tried the track as you suggested and noticed the shadow moving. I looks to me as though its something to do with setting up where the light comes from. The .gdb files contains some lines that set angles for the sun, maybe try adjusting them.
These lines in the .gdb affect how the sun shines and causes shadows
// Time-of-day lighting
SkyBlendSunAngles=(-20.5, -1.0, 11.5, 25.5)
ShadowMinSunAngle=15.0
Latitude = 45.61 // in degrees, -90 ... +90 (def. 0)
NorthDir = 355.89 // in degrees (def. 245)

It looks as though the sun is very low in the sky which causes the long shadows and any bump makes the shadows lengthen and shorten.
I'm not a track expert I'm just thinking what might cause the problem.

I discovered that it is the parts of the track ( .gmt ) that reflect the shadow badly  So I took the original version of the track which does not have this problem and then I reconstructed the square curve which today is called parabolic. Unfortunately this version cannot use the AIW of the track with the shadow problem because it is offset by 270°. So without the AIW managing this version of mine I put the work aside |
