EmberVoid Shader

Ember & Void 0.5.4 (Beta)

Clouds

• Fixed the hard line just below eye level.
• Clouds no longer burn out to white (higher-precision color buffers).
• No more black patches inside clouds, and no more direction-dependent graying.
• Removed the flickering dark waves while moving (temporal accumulation).
• Removed grain and motion smearing.
• New: temporary 2D cirrus clouds so the sky isn't empty.
• Removed: the three old cirrus types and the haze layer. They will be rebuilt in 0.6.0.

Reflections

• Glossy blocks now reflect their surroundings, not just the sky. "Full" is the new default.
• Fixed:   - flickering on side faces   - hard-edged circles   - gaps where block sides are hidden   - flicker from water and waving grass   - white haze in caves
• Metals (gold, iron, copper) reflect in their own color instead of pale and bluish.
• Amethyst is glossy in all forms: block, budding amethyst, clusters and buds.
• Puddles: cloud reflections stay fixed in the world, and plants no longer reflect.

World & lighting

• Lava and fire are no longer white.
• Water is now covered by distance fog.
• New slider for where the render-distance fog starts. It is slightly closer by default.
• Shadows: a new smooth filter is the default, and the old filters are still selectable.

Menu

• Sky and cloud settings are organized into subfolders.
