This update obviously on fixing any reported bugs, improving the previously introduced systems and generally making sure that everything runs as smooth as possible.
Let's start with the Windlight windows, they have been slightly overhauled and cleaned up visually, the save buttons have been combined into a combo button to host both saving locally and the new saving to inventory option (in local edit or local saving in fixed environment editing). Saving your presets should now work for all first timers and those who didn't have a Windlight preset folder yet. Loading has gotten some improved notifications when loading fails, specifically with invalid names it will now suggest using the importer instead. Saving your presets locally should also now save the textures IDs into them properly if you have the permissions.
You heard that right you can now save your preset directly into inventory from the old Edit Sky/Water editors and save your preset from the Fixed Environment editor onto your disk, both options are now available in both windows. I've also reimplemented separate Cloud Scroll locks for X and Y sliders and the preset drop-down list now sorts your local presets at the top, your system presets second and your inventory presets last, all three are now separated by a nice separator with label that tells you exactly what preset bracket you are looking at!
Apart from the Windlight windows i've also fixed several other reported issues, such as SSAO Effect not working, SSR brightening the default glossiness reflections, attached lights vanishing while sitting down, the Windlight editors that open via the Environment Settings window doing wonky stuff, Fixed Environment not reacting to changes after loading a local preset, Edit Outfit having broken button positions, right-click menus for IM tabs not properly enabling/disabling depending on their conditions.
Graphically i also tweaked the Tone Mapping defaults to better match EEP and look closer to pre-EEP, note though that lighting is still vastly different and colors are fixed in EEP which makes red-ish colors show much stronger than before. Please don't expect exactly the same look across all possible settings. EEP has changed lighting as a whole and there is no way around fixing all your presets one-by-one without breaking lighting again, yes breaking again, it was broken and wrong before... as with so many things.
As always thanks for reporting these bugs and thanks to all the new Patrons!

I need help I sent you a friend request on discord and was also hoping to get a discord invite to the serve since the linked u posted has expired discord username is Ńünū Đøll#3700
ReplyDeleteI select a day setting from the 'environment settings' panel and click the gear to edit it, but if I click a tab in the edit window, the enviroment changes from the windlight I was on... in other words, cannot edit the existing WL
ReplyDeleteThis was quite literally fixed in this very release you commented on, i cannot reproduce this issue anymore.
DeleteI'm just starting to get into using the viewer; my only wish was for more of the presaved WL's that firestorm has ect. I have been playing with the windlights provided to make it work but nothing beats the color quality of CALWL ect.
ReplyDeleteWell you can add them! Firestorm's Presets are just presets that were added too, just put them into the proper windlight preset folders or import them now with EEP, most of them are probably also in the Library now as inventory items (Firestorm converted a lot of these presets for EEP)
DeleteAre you going to be adding the day preset back to the viewer anytime soon?
ReplyDeleteYes, its on the todo list. There are more important things atm however.
