Just wondering if the static shapes can have shadow with the LK lights inside a DIF?

Yes, but you need to use ScopeAlwaysStaticShape - a special StaticShape version with all of the animation capability, but also static shadow friendly. StaticShape objects themselves can cast dynamic shadows.

Make sure both collision meshes are convex.

The two collision meshes are just two simple boxes.

Do projectiles collide with both, and if you have TSTPro, are both visible in it?
