Weather

Weather

  • Weather now happens across Ficterra

  • Rain, Snow. Fog and Dust Storms will now show up

  • Biomes dictate what type of weather appears

  • Clouds are now part of the new weather system

  • Removed old 'Acid Rain' weather

  • The 'weather' dev command now toggles the weather for the world

Misc

  • Beeps in the main menu are now correctly affected by the Sfx audio setting

  • Weather noises are now controlled by the Sfx audio settings

  • Minor performance improvements

  • Removed old 'SEGI' system for lighting. It controlled the 'Medium' and 'High' deferred rendering lighting. This didn't increase the graphical quality much, but was a massive performance hit for our game

  • 'Medium' and 'High' deferred rendering now use the custom lighting used by Low but with a higher degree of accuracy
