Thank you NL Team and A-Team for the new features.
Can't wait to test it.

Clip/transparency/opacity mapping?????

There are 2 solutions available for this. Weightmapping and transmittance mapping. Weightmapping was flawless and we're about to fix the sun shadow issue with transmittance mapping. No problem so far.

Thanks Tom. I'm assuming that transmittance mapping is 'maxwell-eze' for opacity. Will we be able to use greyscale images to get gradiance in the transmittance, or will it work like the clipmaps back in the original Alpha?

Ok it was a long shot
I received a mail from Alex Galvano this morning with the followed information about the version 1 release.

[Maxer]

What about it Mike, is the middle part of April going to be the magic date?

[mverta]

I hadn't heard that... I hadn't heard anything, actually. I can only gauge things by how we're testing, and that's fast and furious, with quite a bit to do yet. I know it won't be going out until it's solid and ready, though!

If anyone should get advanced notice and maybe even testing privilages it would be Maxwer and his 120 licenses! Throw him a bone or something

[mverta]

120 Licenses IS impressive, no matter how you cut it...
