i cant see the update affecting anything anyone is doing here. i hope luthier would have seen whats happened here and it made him have a light bulb moment regards distance effects which is what they have done in the images. i cant see them having re designed mip maps, and i do see them adapting some of my theories. but im sure its a simple shader adaptation only and nothing that will void anyone elses work here.

one thing i do hope for is some performance boost from what they have applied in those update images. its these devices that the landscape really needs to help that side of things. sad but true.
