to clarify: the light coming from all the players just bleaches the walls and ground and ceiling with light. They're still there, just illuminated with the light of a thousand suns.

and to further clarify: the brightness is jarring, but that's not the reason it's unplayable. I am getting like 2-3 fps whenever there are more than a handful of people around.

The same performance fix also significantly lowers the brightness of dynamic lighting, as well as allowing you the option of only showing your personal light source.

I hope this is the cause but I couldn’t play either. Lag was far too bad. I’ll try again tomorrow

Dynamic lighting makes the game unplayable for me in Velious or just about anywhere with Snow on the ground.

If the lighting can be used to emulate darkness.. can it please be used to also emulate classic brightness.

Or was it this neon white during classic?

We're all thankful for the effort, but yeah, the recent DX developments are still a bit beta, which is perfectly normal, especially considering Blank & Co are hacking a 2004 binary with no source code available.

Making the DX hacks optional until they are stable would make total sense.

Things being optional until they're stable isn't Classic.

Yeah unfortunately that doesn't do the trick, for many of us.
