Turn up the Contrast Settings and feast your eyes on this teaser posted on the guns of icarus facebook page:



I was discussing this with Muse, apparently they are bringing night maps to Skirmish and Alliance.

When asked whether ships would use Headlights, Muse mentioned lighting will be done using Ambient Light.

How do you all feel about Night Maps?

* I for one am very excited for them, I will be awesome to sneak around and ambush enemies.

Huskarr:
\o/ I gonna trip over so many things in night map. But yay more maps

The Mann:
I wonder if they'll do maps with a Moon or stars in the skybox, that would be awesome!

BinaryDragon:
Looks awesome. This is gonna be great!

Schwalbe:
I know something about computer graphics, lighting and shading models.

Someone who told you they are going to use AMBIENT lights does not.

Ambient light is a component of lighting calculated and is used just so the object is not rendered completely dark - the thing is, that's just a solid color, and usually very weak at that so it doesn't affect calculations too much. It's constant, and doesn't depend on lights, surface, material, etc.


Thus begs the question, what that person meant?

Edit: Unless Ambient Light is referring to way Unity does lighting. And knowing how ass backwards Unity can be, well. It may mean literally whatever (I know jack shit about Unity though)
