## NolanticShader V0.3 — The Big Rendering Overhaul This release rebuilds the entire rendering pipeline from the ground up. ### ⚙️ New Deferred Engine - Full deferred lighting pipeline (G-buffer based) for terrain - Physically-based sun & moon light: real atmospheric transmittance drives light color through the day — golden noon, amber sunsets, violet blue hour, cool blue moonlight at night - Filmic color pipeline: Lottes tonemap, log-space contrast, HSL grading, veil bloom ### 🌍 Sky & Atmosphere - Live-computed atmospheric scattering (Rayleigh + Mie + ozone) — sky, fog and ambient light all share one physical model - Ambient light follows the sky: warm golden ground light at sunset, seamless horizon - New sun disc with chromatic flare rim and a fully phase-lit moon - Volumetric fog with sun shafts and luminous haze ### ☁️ Volumetric Clouds - Planet-curved volumetric cloud layer — clouds sink naturally toward the horizon - Dynamic weather system: fair-weather cumulus, moody stratus decks, storm cover — every in-game day looks different - Multi-octave light scattering with powder effect and silver linings - Cloud shadows on the ground match the clouds you actually see ### 🌑 Shadows & Lighting - Contact-hardening soft shadows (PCSS): crisp at contact, softer with distance - Subsurface scattering: sunlight glows through leaves and grass - Screen-space ambient occlusion, HDR torchlight with warm glow - Glowing end portal frame eyes ✨ ### 🌌 The End - Complete cosmic makeover: violet nebula filaments, dense star field, planets with rings - Warm directional lighting with long dramatic shadows ### 🛠️ Fixes - Water reflections now only appear on actual water (no more mirror portals / stained glass) - Fixed glassy/transparent player models and first-person hand - Nether portal and stained glass render with their real textures - Removed vanilla square sun/moon overlapping the shader celestials - Major performance work across sky, clouds, fog and bloom ### ❤️ Credits Inspired by Photon (SixthSurge), Solas (Septonious) and Complementary (EminGT).
