Patch 262 has been released with a dynamic lighting system and an improved minimap!

Posted by on

New in 262:

  • Minimap no longer buffers all the time when having moved, but instead only if you moved 2 minimap screens far or more
  • Added new lighting
    • Sun and other lightsources dynamically light the environment
    • Sun causes shadows
    • Torches emit light while being carried in hand
    • Magic projectiles emit light
You can also see the bump mapping in the right one:
