Skidraw wouldn't ever fix a missing anything (as the name implies, it's actually designed to skip rendering effects) and as mentioned in OP, they have all HW hacks turned off.
Unfortunately, HW mode is not perfect and certain effects just do not work and there is no real fix (beyond what hacks are already available). Some effects just do not map to directX/opengl from PS2. The only proper solution is to use software mode (as you've discovered). Thankfully in the majority of games DX rendering works fine or only missing small things like these shadows here.

That's sad =/ But I guess playing without shadows is better than playing in low res.
