seems the most logical. Rally oriented update, car with a boxer engine. If it was just some new configs and parts, I don't think they would tease with it
ill also bump this and say the new fading glowmap system got fixed and will prolly be on all vanilla vehicles (i hope) and by fixed i mean the issues it had with randomly lighting some parts of meshes like normal old glowmaps and looking glitchy
I really don't understand why the teaser has a slowed down engine sound? I didn't catch it at first and thought it just sounded bad
there are loads of times this happened not only to me but others, one of the reasons lucases barstow iv doesnt have smooth lit gauges, is because he had issues with part of the mesh being lit the old way (only certain tris), ive also had issues on kljp aeroback with it but it magically got fixed somehow edit- apparently this happens often with objects that have multiple glowmaps in one object and the fix is to split them by material
why would i split taillight glass by material? or headlanps? every mod and vanilla car doesnt do this
If some vanilla cars don't do it then that's a bug on their side. The material system wasn't meant to handle vertices connected to faces that have multiple materials with different glowMaps on top of that
ah ty for the explanation, understand now, if there are docs being made for the new system can you pls put this explantion in there?
They're fine to be in the same mesh part, the vertices along the edges between two glowmaps just can't be physically fully connected and merged to each other as 3d models simply don't have a way to then distinguish what "side" of the vertex each glowmap material belongs to (as for technical reasons this stuff works on vertex materials, not triangles). There's various ways to then make things look normal again shading wise (data transfer etc) if being split would then mess that up (like for curved glass pieces)
Yeah I'm leaning towards overhaul. I think proportions are going to be tweaked. A whole new drivetrain is enough evidence to say overhaul by itself though
all i've ever wanted was either better ui optimization or streetlights on west coast --- Post updated --- or a black grand national
ha i feel like the update might come out next week, possibly either the 31st if they already fixed any bugs, the 4th because they might still have some bugs, and a Friday is a great time to release an update considering its the weekend, or the 1st if the devs feel silly
