Release Notes
This version brings lots of minor improvements and bug fixes.
Features
- Localize Wikipedia API queries for object information.
- Add file-level cache to TLE subsystem. TLE files are also cached per-group to avoid unnecessary sequential calls to fetch the same file. By default, the TTL for TLE files is 1 hour.
- Directory structure of virtual texture tiles now accepts more formats (
levelx
,levelxx
,x
,xx
). - Set default virtual texture cache size to 10. Add information tooltip to cache size in preferences window.
- Add markers for towns and landmarks. Night lights go out with ambient light in PBR shader.
- Country perimeter lines disappear when the camera gets close to the surface of the Planet.
- Add new attributes to dataset definition format:
links
(now accepts multiple sources as links),creator
(the creator or curator of the dataset),credits
(specific attribute for credits instead of adding them to the description; multiple strings accepted).
Bug Fixes
- Typo in default shader class (
u_emissionCubemap
->u_emissiveCubemap
) prevented emissive/night cubemaps from working. - Add
nightCubemap
as alias toemissiveCubemap
in material component. - Add
specularValue
andspecularValues
as aliases tospecular
in material component, with floating point number parameters. - Properly filtre directories when building the SVT quadtree structure to avoid incorrect ‘Worng directory name format’ warnings.
- Deactivating atmospheres causes night texture to apply uniformly to all planet as if it were a regular emissive texture.
- Procedural generation window does not fit in the window with the new UI theme. Fix layout by introducing scroll panes and resizing elements.
- Layout issue in right pane of dataset manager window prevented it from using scroll, causing the window to be too large in some cases.
- Layout issue and tooltip text in datasets component.
- Move
genVersionFile
task to the top of the dependency list (beforecompileJava
) so that we always have the correct file available. - Mend wording in new data pack notification window.
