New features, options and improvements

• Refracting car lights:
  • Position auto-guessing;
  • Option for custom bulbs position;
  • Option for emissive multi-channel behavior;
  • Performance improvements comparing to preview builds;
  • Multi-sampling option (increasing cost in four times, so, don’t use it unless it’s really needed);
• New multi-channel emissive shaders:
  • New alternative mode for txEmissive in which each texture channel defines a mask for a certain emissive channel;
  • Optional procedural mode with four ways of defining areas;
  • Two types of mirroring allowing to increase amount of channels for symmetrical meshes from 4 to 7;
  • New shader for dashboards allowing to set up to 25 indicators with a single mesh and material (procedural mode only);
  • New shader with both _emissive and digital screen features, using emissive mask as digital screen mask as well;
  • New PBR glass shader with _emissive features;
  • Car emissives can specify emissive channel directly, tracks can use ksEmissive1 (ksEmissive2 and so on) syntax;
  • Refracting car lights can use proceducally defined light bulbs linked to different channels:
    • https://gfycat.com/deficientfondhorseshoecrab; (Has been deleted);
    • Please use this approach instead of dynamic emissive map! That feature might be removed soon;
• Procedural grass reworked:
  • Now with geometric fins;
  • Fully customizable cascades;
  • Cars move grass when driving by;
  • For now, without parameters, that will be returned back soon;
• New Python functions:
  • Everything reworked using more error-prone approach, fixing a few bugs in the process;
  • If you’ll notice any incompatibilities in API, please let me know, will fix asap;
  • Switch to strict mode to get errors if arguments are wrong, instead of patch silently returning default value as it was doing before;
  • Python profiler app now also shows log and error messages, renamed to Python Apps Debug;
  • Profiling and error handling for Python apps now should work within extra callbacks as well;
• PBR shaders updated:
  • Specular ambient added (temporary solution until I’ll figure out how to do it properly);
  • Works properly with dynamic lights;
  • Overly occluded reflections fixed;
  • New option for txDetailNormal in PBR format, containing normals, occlusion and specular level (inverted roughness);
• Lights guessing now would work with a single mesh for all four turning indicators;
• Dynamic navigators;
• INIpp format updated:
  • Breaking change: indices now start with 1 instead of 0, to make it less awkward when working with expressions (which were already using 1 because of Lua);
  • New features:
    • Generators;
    • Refer to mixins anywhere, with inline parameters and optional shorter syntax;
    • Auto-indexing values;
    • Vectors support;
  • A lot of bugfixes;
  • Twice as fast;
  • Now with automatic tests to ensure new features won’t break anything!
  • For more information, check out INIpp repo and its README;
• Includable configs with templates:
  • New custom_emissive.ini allowing to set turning lights and what not in just a couple of lines;
  • New selflighting.ini helping to speed up a bit adding extra light sources for headlights lighting up the car;
  • Glass: brightness adjustment option, option to use normal map and, if needed, to use alpha-channel from normal map;
  • Car paints: tiling fix is now optional, use ApplyTilingFix = 0 to disable it;
  • Interior PBR materials: new Material_LeatherDetailed template with PBR detail texture, new options;
  • A lot of new stuff for navigators;
• Extra FX: new MASK_GBUFFER option for headlights glass, allowing to get local reflections from behind it, but dimmer;
• Alpha-to-coverage thing rolled back for now;
• Dirt particles use track colors from Tyres FX, this time properly;
• A bit of tonemapping for SSLR to reduce aliasing caused by too bright objects being reflected;
• Analog odometers:
  • Now background color is used properly;
  • Use fonts from content/fonts;
  • Options for scaling fonts vertically and for a vertical offset for fonts;
• Car inputs:
  • Options INPUT_ADD and INPUT_MULT (not really needed with INPUT_LUT, but it might be easier sometimes to just use a simple way of setting it);
  • Options INPUT_THRESHOLD_LOWER_INC and INPUT_THRESHOLD_UPPER_INC using less-or-equal or greater-or-equal check;
  • New SEATBELT input (free camera with hidden driver for now);
• SSLR works better with semi-transparent objects (not as bad as before) like semi-trasparent puddles with new water shader;
• Adaptive shadow boundaries now should shift closer if something is very close to camera;
• New digital screen shader acting like overlay for existing meshes;
• Option for terrain casting shadows: will cast shadows as double-sided when sun is low;
• Option for disabling track cameras LOD distance multiplier, enabled by default;
• Option for filling missing textures in SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...;
• Option to disable side culling;
• Water shader: option to use alpha-channel from txNormal;
• Default frequency for blinking emissives changed to 2.2 Hz (apart from turning lights);
• New car paints got damages and dirt back;
• Mesh filters in cars: filter by LOD;
• New options for car lights:
  • OFFSET and OFF_OFFSET, three numbers, for fine-tuning position without reassigning guessed value;
  • ONESIDED, either LEFT or RIGHT: same as setting MIRROR=0 and POSITION=X, …, where X was old MIRROR value, but guessing-friendly;
  • PREFER_FRONT, for position guessing (if mesh was split in two bits, front and rear) or picking custom emissive properly;
• Option to add extra sharpness to local reflections for certain materials or meshes;
• Custom analog instruments:
  • POS_OFFSET_START and POS_OFFSET_END fixed;
  • Option for scaling with SCALE_START and SCALE_END;
  • New LOWER_BOUND option;
• A lot of various fixes and stability improvements;
