It's not terrible, it was actually nice.

Jeep tricked me into thinking V21 was coming out. Not nice ;(

OT:

Badspot should put the images from the OP on the website!

It's not terrible, it was actually nice.

besides not having bottoms of clouds and not having very realistic clouds in the first place and being more useful as an upgraded LSG than as a cloud generator

Have some pride about your add-on, if you look at the pictures, it really is neat.

AAAAAGH ITS TOO HD AND SHADOW FX!

I think I know the answer to this but will rain/snow/other precipitation particles collide with bricks or go through them?

EDIT: actually I just re-watched the video and it looks like they go through bricks. :c

v21 is not out yet!

I don't really like the little jagged edges on that ramp on the right, unless the brick actually creates those and we have never noticed it.

It's the standard shadow res that Blockland uses, for player and vehicle shadows. I like it for the sole purpose of it being faster than huge shadows.

I'm sure it's because:
1. Ramp texture?
2. Low shadow quality setting?
3. Shadows still in development?
