addedHi all, Hopefully folk are enjoying the newly revamped Freedom 7 mission (many thanks for the bug reports...all added to the list!).
changedAs a the developer of this game I am in the unique position of seeing features well before they arrive on your screens (or headsets!) so I thought I'd share a couple of shots of how the terrain and clouds are currently looking from here! While a great deal of time has been spent on the interior of the capsule, it's always bothered me that my planet terrain just wasn't as nice as I wanted it (although the current globe's texture has a resolution of 130,592 x 85,296!) so I'm working on making everything crisper, bumpier and generally more realistic. This overhaul of planet Earth will form the basis of the next major patch (might be a bug fix first). Still a lot of work to be done to get the whole globe up to this standard so as ever, some patience needed but so far the overhaul is going very, very well. I'll keep you posted on progress!
