We just had to stop for a minute this week and capture this little bit of footage that caught our eye. We hope you like the new visual direction Trainz is taking with such great technical terms as "PBR", "Parallax", "IBL" and more. In short, it means "lighting looks a lot more like it does in the real world" - Take for example, the reflection on the wooden benchtop at 0:14 and the difference on the window ledge on the sunny side versus "darker" side.
And yes, before someone asks, the video is all in-game footage, and there's still plenty of room for tweaking things yet :)
