Hi all,
The build on the experimental branch is now stable.
New Christie spring suspension
Adds a new suspension type which utilizes configurable springs.
Compared to torsion bars, they're cheaper, more space consuming and they run up the sides of the hull instead of across the width, letting you build lower profile vehicles.
In addition, some big optimizations to rendering have been made.
New Parts
- Christie spring suspension
- KV-1 stowage box
- Round split hatch
- Periscope hatch
Changes
- Significantly optimized vehicle shader with no quality loss.
- Optimized CPU rendering of vehicles.
- Reduced GPU performance cost of depth of field set to high.
- Fixed a minor memory leak.
- Added a subtle blur to paint jobs, to lower pixelation at high scales.
- Raised the resolution of all paint job textures from 1024x1024 to 2048x2048.
- 'Abstract' and 'Block' camouflages are now available again.
- Fixed axles not connecting to sprocket wheels correctly.
- Fixed vehicle detail levels not being affected by the distance object detail setting.
- Increased consistency of part texture quality.
