Improve lighting
At least smooth lighting. Not per-block as now.
Maybe shadows and more realistic light.
Maybe shadows and more realistic light.
i would prefer this as optional setting. like rtx on in bedrock. also ambient oculusion would be cool
@OneGuyS Yes, this will be optional setting.
Actually, I have already implemented smooth lighting (with some glitches, that I will fix later) and ambient occlusion (SSAO with deferred rendering #78).
So, I am completely improving overall rendering now, and I want to add realtime directional/point shadows, HDR, maybe PBR.
So I don't like SDL it's hard to work with. If you want to add prb, advanced lightning or something like this try bgfx. I know it would be hard to port all this work to different library but i thing it would be easier later.

(I recommend Vulkan RHI.)
@OneGuyS tl;dr: I'm not interested in bgfx.
I know about bgfx and other rendering libraries. Unfortunately, I already done most 'hard' part of the graphics job. In AltCraft I have my own custom RHI with OpenGL backend (and now I am looking into Vulkan), so I am will implement PBR and other render features using my RHI functions (instead of using OpenGL functions directly), and you suggesting me to replace my RHI with bgfx. Sorry, but I don't think that I want to use bgfx (maybe later, very later, when there will be no more higher priority tasks), because direct control of graphics API is fun (and can give more performance/features, but main reason is my fun from coding). SDL used only for input and window management.
