You Don't Deserve the Neglection and I will prove it soon 👁

I noticed the new G Wagon headlights use actual Spotlight components. Together with Global Illumination, it replicates the exact car lighting quality STW had in 2017!

Ever since Car_Copper vanished from the game files (the specific Blueprint that dynamically boosted car real light intensity (not only emissive Material) based on time of day and also how the spotlight angles being adjusted (Outer/Inner Cone), we haven't seen this engine capability, used on vehicles but also on many assets such as props, Like the TrafficLight anymore

Is this spotlight physically attached to the G-Wagon asset? Or is it just a hardcoded trick for cutscenes? But Either way, its a undeniable proof of how much cinematic atmosphere STW has lost over the years.

But there is good thing, UEFN shows that the old props still have their Spotlight components attached to their Sockets, its technically all restorable for both vehicles but also light emitting assets with actual logic behind them but sadly, Car_Copper is gone and needs to be remade as a blueprint

I dont like that she's is not healing quicker, it needs to be more difficult to kill her

apollogize for bad quality

Could you please look into the 3 Ambience SFX / transition tracks that used to play when transitioning through the day-evening-night cycle? They seem to have completely disappeared from the current game files

I'd also like to mention TimeChange_Dusk, which played right as the evening was arriving before evening_thing and TimeChange_Dawn, which triggered when you survived the night and the map transitioned back to morning.

These audio files were massive for the spooky feel and immersion of the world. Any chance you guys could look into restoring these Audio/Cues

Make your own Versions and show them that Save the World also should be a part off the Community Day Event

Jk, I know where both off them are, their position offset was adjusted into a - xyz value so far
outside that you cannot see them anymore, The light from both played a massive role in illuminating the world, both day and night

the exact Entry in the Files

SunMesh → 1x1x1_Box_Pivot_-XYZ (Type 1) MoonMesh → 1x1x1_Box_Pivot_-XYZ (Type 1) SunScale: 0.0 (Typ 2) MoonScale: 0.0 (Type 2) *DEAD

Edit: For some reason, some maps like Scurvey have a fully functional Sun for example

This Map Chunk and Ambient Sound Trigger was a basic Feature back then when the Sound Design was actually made with love and wasnt removed intentionally or "by accident"

the thing is, the Ambient Sound Loops and Non Loops were heavily reduced over the years also wind, storm and many other sfx dont exist anymore since the (Great Reset of Cinematic Save the World) This Games Visuals are Dead since years and all can be restored again

My report about missing audio:

Here

My other two reports were backlogged because they know how broken the atmosphere is they know how severe the issue is, I discovered what's missing and will post a MASSIVE Table giving the answer to everything and what actually happened with Save the World cinematic Visuals and it's heartbreaking

Online Test 10 was playable about 5 months before the official 2017 launch

Every Wall, Trap or Floor was built by me, I should really stop investing ressources into a mission if I already know that I have ret@rded mates even it it's a high powerlevel mission
