August 1, 20214 yr But why are Asobo doing this in the first place? Why dumb down volumetric lighting? Is is because they think we wont notice? Is it because it was yet another backdoor experiment to produce more FPS? Or are they simply such bad coders that that they truly dont know what they are doing and this is all just ‘accidental’? Surely someone within must have made a decision to flick switches in the code. If they cant explain it then it is either because they genuinely have no clue or simply don’t care to, in which case we can suspect ineptitude is strongly in play.

I sure hope they didn't think we wouldn't notice. Another simmer on another thread brought up a good point that we will probably see some of these features return as things even out with the Xbox. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case here. I would be curious going forward though why it wasn't included in the release notes if that's the case. My fingers are crossed though that this is just a simple bug.

Unfortunately the mod didn't help either, but his pictures do this lighting effect great justice to show that it existed.

I can verify this by looking at the strobes with no reflection. Do you have any screenshots or a video showing this working?

August 1, 20214 yr They actually temporarily removed entire channels that they could not make compatible with SU5 in time. Maybe this is related.

I’m ok with that. A simple explanation from the devs this week would satisfy me. Atleast I hope it’s that easy.
