Hi all!!!!.

I was looking around in the forums and found a thread about some port´s dynamic lightning and I asked to myself "Will this be possible with the new version?".

I know our current version has some kind of dinamic lights that work (well, they paint walls instead of light them :P) and I think someone told me that the new Legacy settlement will have REAL dynamic lights so, can anyone confirm this please?.

That's the plan. As it is now they just don't blend properly. Of all the things Hurdler has to do for the new renderer, changing the light blending is probably among the easier ones so it's not top of the list right now. :)

Sweet, thanks :). I saw some dynamic light shots and, if not overused, they can help to create interesting atmospheres :). Legacy is the best port around, IMHO, and is going to be even better, I hope :).
