sure.
change

Shadow = SHADOW_DECAL
ShadowSizeX = 14;
ShadowSizeY = 14;
ShadowTexture = ShadowI;

from the infantry code block to

Shadow = SHADOW_VOLUME
;ShadowSizeX = 45 ;defines from which angle the light comes and how wide the shadow is

I'm not sure. I've heard some people say it works, others say it doesn't do anything...

No, Volumetric shadowing doesn't work on Infantry. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with how they're rigged.

That's because they probably implemented the feature for BFME to allow large creatures to have volumetric shadows.Also notice that BFME 2 has volumetric shadows for all units.

Could it be because of a setting in gmax. Try enabling shadows before exporting
