That is Port's Soft Shadows, but it does not give you the image effects that Filipe added into the mod preview. http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=241926.0

It'd be cool, but I think it would need an engine change iirc, and we don't want that.

That's not dynamic lighting, that's additional post-processing done in a different program. I might be very wrong here but I don't believe Blockland is capable of adding dynamic lighting (which I assume is light sources rendering shadows) at all, and even if it was possible it'd knock framerates down to single digits, god forbid below that.
I believe it's possible to force Blockland to use ambient occlusion, anti-aliasing (Filipe did there, either that or he downsized the screenshot), bloom, and all of that nonsense, but it's not packaged in with the game and likely never will be.

you mean you want bloom and lens flares?

hah no

1: No, he means more lights (like lights from bricks) to make shadows.
2: Why did you edit to that font?

Cuz this

Also that would be cool to have, maybe the lights can be edited somehow like the shaders were to make them dynamic I dunno.

[Plexious]

Uh.
Lights are dynamic.
They just don't cast shadows.

it certainly is. it'd just knock framerate down way too much, like you said

it was something kompressor mentioned during the v21 discussion, saying they might revisit the idea later once they optimise things a bit better

Now im thinking kompressor is the gman of blockland

[Mr Man]

Don't we already have dynamic lighting anyway?
