Author Topic: Is dynamic lighting possible?  (Read 1953 times)

Just wondering.

If it were to be confirmed to be added to the game, and it took 6 months for shaders, I wonder how long it would take to add this  :cookieMonster:

I'd say a few thousand dollars an a bunch of extra people to work on optimization.

Ie. forever.

what are you talking about??

we allready got dynamic lighting.
and we never had static lighting (beside lightmaps of interior objects).

we even got per pixel lighting with the shader update.

I think you confused dynamic lighting with something else!?

Dynamic shadows i think is what you mean.

He's talking about lights on bricks casting shadows. That's more of a performance hit than it's worth TBH

Hm. I guess I mixed up what I meant.

is it possible to make lights NOT shine through bricks?

the reason that this works on a lot of games because the maps aren't breakable or moveable unlike blockland so they are prelighted and that doesn't have to happen every second, so it will probably never happen, although prelighting builds and making them un-editable could be added later

Oohh I would really want this, I think it's possible.

Well I expected that with the shadows and shaders update

I was very wrong, I was so excited, being like,"z0mg i cna maek a room w/ a liteswich that makes d room dark wen its awf"
