Namek

[EndreVanan]

So I was just sitting here, and I thought something.

How the hell are the day/night cycles going to work on Namek? With three suns and no night, will the suns just revolve around the map?

AFAIK there won't be any day-night cycle, but two maps: Namek (day) and Namek End (volcanos!).

We have the option to not make the sun move at all ^^

Besides we only have 1 sun shadow support ATM. Dunno if Ryo plans to add more.

 

[Baaja]

In the manga did the characters have more than one shadow? Are the suns actual light sources in the manga or are two "far away" enough that only one should be considered as the sun.

 

[Ryokeen]

We could implement more suns with shadows pretty easy, but none game engine today is fast enought(same for computers) to compute more than 1 sun with shadows.

Well personally i think I wouldn't care if there's 1 or 3 shadows ... 2 or 3 shadows would make it look unrealistic or just stupid(Imagine flying around with 3 shadows of your character and the environment in 3 different directions). And it would give extra work for CPU and GPU , which is unwanted...
My advice - better stay with one shadow

Personally I think ESF Final is unplayable on server with 32 players...
