* Improved simulation of atmospheric light scattering with terrain haze.
* Improved simulation of atmospheric light scattering with terrain haze.
* An experimental renderer, named after the famous painter Rembrandt, is included for testing purposes. The Rembrandt rendered supports multiple light sources (landing lights, instrument lights), real-time shadows and ambient occlusion across aircraft and scenery for a much more realistic visual experience.
