Grand Introduction of SFCR 1.8

We're excited to bring you this major update, which includes several new features, a handful of fixes, and numerous optimizations. We highly recommend upgrading.

Core changes

• Fully rewritten from v2.0 (major internal rework).
• Ported 1.21.6+ vanilla mesh build (integrated normal/circular culling).

Features

• Added custom dimension support.
• Added cloud bottom dim.
• Added night density slider.
• Added "No Cloud, No Rain" feature.
• Added Distant Horizons compatibility (manual enable required).
• Added Particle Rain compatibility (manual enable required).

Fixes

• Fixed infinite loop when performing a long-distance teleport.
• Fixed dawn/dusk blush color flicker.
• Fixed excessive thread creation causing severe lag.
• Fixed occasional weather detection failure leading to density flicker.

Optimizations

• Increased cloud top density during rainfall.
• Adjusted network and event hooks.
• Simplified server-side commands and behavior.
• Reworked the config, config screen, and config I/O system.
• Reworked server synchronization.
• General performance and stability improvements.

Known Issues

• Position culling works incorrectly when close to clouds.
• Mesh rebuilds when the Y-coordinate changes have a slight delay due to concurrent updates, and cloud height is not sufficiently accurate.

Note

• Particle Rain compatibility requires Particle Rain version v4.0.0-beta.5. As this mod is in beta and frequently rework (as our, well...). This compatibility may expire soon. New update will come accordingly at that time.
