Hey Everyone, We’ve been working hard since the start of January on fixing lots of bugs of varying sizes. This latest patch has taken a little longer than we’d have expected as we upgraded our engine version from Unreal 5.4 to 5.5. This itself gave us some unexpected issues however we are now happy with everything to push this build live. The main feature you will notice is Mega Lights, which is a new Unreal method for rending dynamic lights, this means you can now splash lights down without it killing your performance. However this feature won’t be available for everyone as your systems will require hardware ray-tracing. This is an NVIDIA RTX-2000 series or newer or an AMD RX-6000 series or newer. Sadly these are restrictions but on us by Unreal. If you don’t have these GPUs don’t worry as we still have all the dynamic lights working nicely and we’ve done some optimisations for them so ...
