Hey all! We're pretty hyped about this feature we've been talking about for a long time, but bognar managed to crack out for 0.7.18 release (in-time for Alpha!)
Vertex Lighting
Previously, each voxel in Adrullan would apply it's lighting sample averaged across an entire Face. This could lead to areas of harsh "stepping" as the light level shifts. A classic technique to smooth the light fall-off is known as Vertex Lighting. Though this feature has been discussed for EverCraft Online since it's inception, with 7.1.8 we are finally introducing it. With this feature, each vertex of each voxel samples the lighting conditions around it and appropriately blends the lighting across the voxel face, greatly improving the visual fidelity of the game.
Looking forward to you all checking it out September 1, 2023, 2:30 PM ET!
