editing models to support specular maps natively, hundreds of new specular maps made, hundreds of AO maps added, shadowcasting added to all bonfires, extra shadowcasting torch pyres, environment enabled shadowcasting where needed, filterparam edits to luminance/tonemapping (by default the game has luminance set at 110%, I put this at 100% or 1.0, among other changes to bring contrast back), many trees in fofg will now render from across the map instead of being culled when you're at the cardinal tower bonfire, and lastly, editing the player light to be more like the beta footage and offers more pleasing hero lighting. also my DeS remaster hit 1.0 btw. This particular DS2 mod work hasn't been released yet. I'm planning on a demo that applies these changes to majula, things betwixt, some of heide's tower of flame, some of no man's wharf, and so release isn't that far off for the demo. stay tuned. (these foundational changes to the models will benefit my DS2LightingEngine mod work btw)
