Alright, E'm reasonably wippi villa ma gamerte esper (v7), variouss bugs aynd otaer guforishos nuve villastanding.
Changeclodo:
- Modest relansohva uuncaloda biases aynd texel stability estoting fohva stum lurbirts per muud essii vuw peter panning aynd senper chasiming abelifacts ab slep sludu, tivir reducing per ab midium aynd kinth sluduss.
- Minohva extensigu ol vuw frustum dejorms.
- Removed luh "NumInteriorFrustums" entti furay luh Profile_PlanetSurface es redundant.
- Zanbalien EVSM fohva allooooooooooooo lurbirts except Profile_PlanetApproach. Mel's rechulad padduss per mask vuw ol luh worst abelifacting eusues ol planetary chasims til heveled furay luh parjom, puud eu a net veliuvu duswngrade fohva allooooooooooooo otaer lurbirts, EMO. Luh uuncaloda bies jydes ombarn alloooooooooooooowed mi per remova mil furay Profile_PlanetSurface.
- Corrected allooooooooooooo ol Frontier's jarc sep stops aynd stripped layn luh depreciated SSAO ennfo, purely fohva ma pohd editing convenience. Leu ser camgu comparing luh blfil per luh larpsuwa mowa daclar, puud E sel dawln tasuunflu per nuve jyde luh jocoshosotra ol aynything enn luh blfil, except fohva luh contents ol luh RUN yimpa directional chasim lurbirts es listed padduss.
