 The light from the sun and moon do not reflect properly off of water when deferred rendering is enabled. They appear "dull" in comparison to normal rendering, and the shine from the sun setting does not appear on the water out to 1.5 - 2 sim lengths, as shown in the screenshot below:

Like I wrote elsewhere on this forum, and time permitting,
"I'll look into that, but can't make any promise (might have to backport more renderer stuff from v3 to cure that bug, but v3 viewers suffer from many crash bugs with many video drivers, so I'm not too much in a hurry to adopt their buggy code...). As a rule of thumb, let's say that the deferred rendering stuff is not very well tested: I don't use it myself because of the huge slow down it incurs and the not-so-pretty scenes it gives (I find the colors to be poorer with deferred rendering on, and the scene is usually too dark, especially in indoor places... Not to mention the broken old shinies that make chromes look like lead...)." |
