Whoa I did not see this coming. :O
I'm feeling rather torn between those nice looking shadows and loosing some of my favorite maps. Still, defiantly looking forward to this update.
The next update after this (and I'm calling it) will be a replacement of the vehicle system with brick-built vehicles.
Though brick-vehicles would be neat, I would much rather keep the current system. I think an update to the physics system is all that's needed anyways.
this is the perfect opportunity to host a big city build to have both as a default build and as a showcase for the shaders
hint hint
Can I help? :p
