[QUOTE="Alex, post: 118825, member: 982"] Ooh, loving the GI animation and how much that really makes Bride sing. Overall the lighting looks phenomenal and I'm desperately hoping I can get some decent rendition of that out of my crusty 2010 iMac once it gets backported to the PC version (yeah, I've given up on the Mac port). But it looks like the weird 'spotlight' issue is still there, if in reduced form: the vassal name inserts (tell me that phrase has ever been spoken before in English) on Medieval Madness come off looking round even though they're rectangular, and a LOT of other non-circular inserts in many other games illuminate bits of playfield that they shouldn't. Bride's top heartbeat ramp lights a heart-shaped space, but shines straight through the steel ramp entrance that partially occludes it. Also interesting is that Medieval's green trough flasher lights the top side of the drawbridge even though it's underneath and AFM's center saucer's backside LEDs illuminate the top of the saucer, which they're behind. I don't know whether this is a weird implementation of bloom or that lighting in general is handled an intensely special way, but it's super weird and distracting. I love the specific way that lamp inserts form hard edges in dark lighting, and that's totally busted in a lot of games. Arg. Meanwhile, the Theatre inserts are immaculately correct. Hmm. [/QUOTE]
