RELEASE NOTES
- Free-for-All (FFA) – All ships are hostile
- New Ship lighting/shading (as shown in below video in split screen) with:
- Environmental ambient lighting
- Directional lighting
- Specular highlights
- Bump mapping
- Rim Lighting
The video below has a split screen with the current lighting on the right, and the new lighting on the left.
The difference is quite noticable, though it does look better on screen than in the video!
Hope you have fun!
