Hardmoor 2,195 Report post Posted May 11, 2017 So does that mean shadows in clouds are now correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaniol 421 Report post Posted May 11, 2017 Sounds great. A tip for future updates: could you offer a visual comparison "before>after" / "old>new" in a screenshot, when you do changes to the graphics? I know it's extra effort, but I am sure it will be appreciated by the players. Stona (Posted May 11, 2017) If it's a bug fix - nope.

zwergziege 1,533 Report post Posted May 11, 2017 Yay! I'm so happy that that long-standing full sunlight in clouds issue has been fixed. Was it just a difficult issue to address with the newer cloud rendering, or did it take so long because it hadn't been noticed and a bug report called it out? I ask, because I considered bug reporting it multiple times, but thought it so obvious that the devs had to have known about it. Stona (Posted May 11, 2017) Obvious or not, if you see bug, please submit a report :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been a bug for a while, locks quite a few people out of Sim mode, be nice if this is what has been fixed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constant improvements from the visual effects team help with the feeling of immersion. I notice the sun/moon seem to have been shrinking back to more realistic sizes too.
