I'm not sure if this is exactly what we're talking about here, but I always restart again after an update completes.  I noticed a long time ago that it seems to behave like the updates didn't even go through after the auto-restart (not to mention other things happening like it not setting the correct full-screen resolution) and I just got in the habit of restarting it again manually after each update.  Restarting BEFORE I hit login again.

Is advice that might be useful!

Thanks Jagerbomber

Likely just unintentionally omitted.

I am another who is missing shadow intensity so much! So I am happy was just accidentally omited :)  I hope you can re-add again very soon.
In fact i was about to ask. Would be posible increase the maximum value? Lets say 8 or 10 (double).
For people who like very soft shadows and good visibility in shadow places is great (90% time i use it in 5, maximum).

Also, i loved the trees colours and now they are almost totally black. Dont know if its conected with shadow intensity lack, or its something more?

Anyway, this little thing, and a fail not saving your settings in enviroment after you close and reopen the engine (at least in my case), its a great update!

Yes it's a nice update, and I also think trees are too dark in general (they have been always for me). They got  even darker with all the shading applied to them though. Maybe we could have a command or slider to lighten them up.

With regard trees and their colour..

In spring new leaves are bright light green, then as the leaves mature the green becomes darker. Following on from this stage high winds and weather damage the leaves and the overall green of the tree darkens with a steady increase of dark browns... Then autumn arrives with the reds which again darken with into browns...

Just a thought...

Since there are no seasonal variations in color implemented yet, this may not be the point. It's the brightness level of trees that seem to be a bit on the dark side, often not corresponding well with the surrounding grasslands. Also shady areas like under trees often get too dark.

Not sure exactly how many lines it should have. You can always save backup, then delete world.cfg and or eng.cfg and restart OT and those files will be freshly generated. This can help so solve many issues which are obvious.

Is anyone having trouble with some of Levis planes? Flaps no longer working?

F117A is the only thing that gives me error.
Ilyushin - Corby starlet and A320 work well.

After using the Google Maps overlay for a while I get a "not enough space in image cache" error or something like that and the UI stops being visible.

The ilyushin has throttle controls that are now outside the plane, The corby has problems with visible flaps and all the planes now seen to "wallow" pretty badly in any sort of turn. Just looking at the update description, I don't see what would be causing this. And Levi doesn't seem to be around as much, so it might take a while to pin things down.

I only tried the flaps, but now that comets're right, it's broken.
I did notice error in the controls, and I said, but no one commented, so I thought I only had the error.
it feels like,,, frustrated, but we get used to these things, I just know that as you wash the dishes, do so with care and respect, but still will continue breaking.
it is not necessary to share this view,, but surely will agree rejoice when we see Levy

Controls outside the plane are likely because the scripts are using non-normalized axis in rotations, which causes the resulting rotation to do unexpected things.
