## Oh man here comes another big update! get ready fellas! This update improves on many old issues and improves many previous features! # ---Lighting--- * Greatly improved lighting at all times of day * Fixed an issue that resulted in poor lighting on flat surfaces and glancing angles * Improved distribution of blocklight * Improved distribution of skylight * All indirect lighting now takes on proper diffuse lighting distributions # ---Atmosphere--- * Adjusted fog values to lessen the "blue tint" previously present * Improved the rendering of godrays * They are now softer and condensed at the sun which also now means no jarring transition when looking towards the other side of the screen # ---Weather--- ## Weather has seen some major adjustments since previous versions! * Adjusted the timings of all weather transitions * The transition time from regular to weather is now much improved. Its slower and lingers longer after rain has stopped * Rain wetness now samples from the texture roughness so rough reflections can utilize per pixel data * To put easily, when using a resourcepack, rain reflections will look better as it can use the whole texture information now * Adjusted the angle and size of rainfall * Improved rendering and blending of rain fog # ---Water--- * Fixed an issue with above ground sky reflections rendering on water while underwater, creating blinding visuals * Water waves now fade out based on intensity and distance from the player's position * Waves can now be toggled off # ---PBR Features--- * Improved the handling of Subsurface scattering * By default it should now be less blown out and affect blocks in direct lighting less oddly * Adjusted how specular is applied to get better results on specular highlights * Tweaked the emissive intensity of blocks in both hardcoded and labPBR modes * Made some big adjustments to SSR * Fixed an old bug with SSR that would result in a weird line moving around as you moved the camera * Fixed SSR "stretching" and halucinations and glancing angles (thanks to a code snippit from Dr Desten and JBritain for providing said snippit) # ---Post Processing--- * Restored tonemap operator settings * Adjusted intensity of bloom * Tweaked the values of FXAA to be a little less agressive
