Work-in-Progress: Graphics Update & Optimization

[p]Hey Stalkers! We’ve been hard at work polishing the graphics and making the game run smoother — here’s a sneak peek at what’s coming. [/p][h2]Visual upgrades: [/h2]
  • [p]Added dynamic shadows for a more immersive atmosphere.,[/p]
  • [p]Introduced HDR, bringing richer colors, deeper contrasts, and a more natural, eye-friendly look.[/p]
[p][/p][h2] Performance optimization: [/h2][p]Right now, even objects you can’t see (hidden behind walls or obstacles) are still rendered in the background — adding unnecessary load to the system. We’re implementing an optimized rendering system that cuts off everything outside your field of view, making the game run faster and smoother. Screenshots: [/p]
  1. [p]First-person view,[/p][p][/p]
  2. [p]Side view – current rendering,[/p][p][/p]
  3. [p]Side view – optimized rendering,[/p][p][/p]
[p] Stay tuned — this is just one step in making the Zone both more beautiful and more stable.[/p]
