1. Download the licensee's test project and open. https://udn.unrealengine.com/s/contentdocument/0694z00000WgzJUAAZ
2. Observe the Directional light and meshes are all on Light Channel 1
3. Observe the flickering in the shadows
4. Turn on the Virtual Shadow Map Cached Page visualization. Observe the pages being invalidated
