Description

Should terrain cast shadows?.

castShadows is obsolete. Instead you should use shadowCastingMode which allows setting all shadow casting modes. Setting castShadows to true sets shadowCastingMode to Rendering.ShadowCastingMode.TwoSided. Setting it to false sets shadowCastingMode to Rendering.ShadowCastingMode.Off.

Is something described here not working as you expect it to? It might be a Known Issue. Please check with the Issue Tracker at issuetracker.unity3d.com.
