New Deferred Shading Renderer

This new renderer allows much higher framerates when having lots of light sources and is optimized for medium to high end graphics cards. Here are some of the key features of the new engine:

Improved Light Source Rendering

  • Engine scales much better with high number of light sources

  • Scales much better with high end graphics cards by reducing driver load (less draw calls)

  • Even light sources that are very far away will be rendered

  • Improved computation using linear color space for more realistic visuals

New Graphics Effects

  • Custom implementation of Screen-space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) greatly improving visuals

  • Bloom effect

  • Sun shafts effect

  • High Dynamic Range lighting with adaptive iris effect (works great together with bloom effect)

  • New underwater caustics effect

Smarter Engine

  • New automatic occlusion detection system (manual occluders are rarely needed anymore)

  • Improved light shafts with higher quality and performance (allows much cooler light effects, such as lasers)

  • SMAA anti-aliasing (Copyright (C) 2011 by Jorge Jimenez, Jose I. Echevarria, Tiago Sousa, Belen Masia, Fernando Navarro and Diego Gutierrez.) for best trade-off between performance and quality

New Park Objects

  • New park lamp set (over 20 new scene objects)

  • New fence set (over 13 new fence types, each coming with multiple variations)

  • New bench set (over 15 new scene objects)

  • New trash can set (5 new scene objects)

  • High Definition foliage set (10 new scene objects)

Improved Sound Effects

  • Various coaster styles have received brake sound updates

  • Moveable magnetic brakes sound added

  • Gate sound added
