Since I made it, I might as well show it... Smooth lighting even on partial blocks. Trilinear interpolation is a pain to code.  |

That looks so much better than the original lighting engine. But, is the old lighting system going to be completely scrapped or will it still be available similarly to the lighting option in Minecraft?

I don't know. It's not hard to support the old one but there also isn't a whole lot of point. It's only at geometry generation time that the speed hit happens. Technically the old engine supported smooth lighting but it was always setting all values in the cell the same. I may allow turning it on/off just to test the performance of the generation. Though I already made that faster than in the old engine so it may not matter as related to the old engine. There are still many things to work out... so we'll see. |

Oh, wow, happy birthday Unn! It's only 20 days early and a derailment to this thread that didn't happen in the very next post after you announced the good news! (IOW, not completely shunned)
