Do you have the same GPU as the guy on page 2? Is it somehow dependent on graphics settings?

Yep, an Intel iGPU but a later model HD 530 (Skylake).

Edit: per-fragment lighting and shadow doesn't have any effect. Antialising cannot test because not supported yet by the video drivers.

The new gfx improvements look great. From looking at the before and after pics it seems objects don't cast shadows on themselves, is that possible with your current engine? Would it be hard to implement?

i noticed my palisade had random darker tiles

either someone attacked in multiple places or this update highlighted the decay

my fps is usually 50-60, drops to 5-15 during some animations like digging earth and tossing it in the air, and when loading certain objects on the map

They do; however, on cel-shaded materials the effect is not always enormous, depending on lighting and other conditions.

Just for the record, it is probably more related to the map changing constantly than to the animations.

Is it hard to update only some tiles? As i remember there was such message in proto of Legacy Haven (but never used?).

The important question is, do trolls still have that cave-in move?

Don't know if that would work with current combat system, but if they do RIP ganking tactics

It does actually seem I can reproduce this on my Intel GPU laptop as well. I'm experimenting with it and getting... weird results, to say the least.
