New Skyboxes & Colors
Added 2023-10-02 19:02:31 +0000 UTCHi!
I just finished implementing all the new high-quality skyboxes. I also decided to give a bit more color to each time of day and tweak some lighting settings to match the new skies. I think the end result is quite compelling compared to "classic" post-apocalypse desaturated visuals.
There's one example image from each time of day attached to the post.
Let me know what you think :)

Eventually yes, I actually already had a shader for those in Unity but now those details are not the priority until the enjoyable game loop is there :)

2023-10-03 13:38:02 +0000 UTCWe are so used to seeing images and film from WWII, Korea, and Vietnam as either black and white or desaturated/degraded that it is easy to think that the world looked that way to peoples' eyes at the time. It somehow seems "right" that such events took place in black and white or with less vivid color. So much so that films like Saving Private Ryan and series like Band of Brothers and The Pacific use desaturated color to make them seem more "real." Even the images from Iraq and Afghanistan look almost monochromatic because of the different climate from what most of us in the West are used to. While in reality, these events all took place in the same full color we see today (unless you are color blind). This realization makes those events seem that much more troubling, unsettling, and wrong. So as Sebu and Matthew Newton said, (paraphrase) it looks like a normal day but it is in fact far from normal. Love it.

2023-10-03 09:54:02 +0000 UTCThis exact feeling is what I get often when playing Stalker GAMMA. It just looks like a peaceful relaxed afternoon. Nothing to worry about. Nothing about to jump out of a bush and kill you.

2023-10-03 07:33:18 +0000 UTCThis was definitely a good improvement. Especially that midday atmosphere is so natural and gives you kind of innocent feeling of the surroundings. Like there is nothing special going on around you, just a typical summer day at the forest and birds singing. This gives a good contrast and set of mixed feelings in your head as at the same time you try to survive in that post-apocalyptic situtation.

2023-10-02 20:10:30 +0000 UTCGreat Change that will go a long way to give RTV its own unique artstyle and will allow it to distinguish itself from other games in the Genre.

2023-10-02 19:36:03 +0000 UTCLooks AMAZING! And I second the command that asked if you are going to improve the texture of the moon! It would be so cool to look up at the sky and see tons of starts and a huge moon 👀

2023-10-02 19:23:52 +0000 UTC"drab zero color palletes = gritty and realistic" was visually one of the worst thing to happen to the games industry. The sky looks beautiful! Good job.
