Oasis Environment

[konidias]

For a few days I have been working on the Oasis environment. Oasis will have a realistic weather system, and constantly changing environment.

For weather, there will be rain, snow, sleet, hail, and wind. Also I hope to be creating an actual "sun" that will travel over the land for day/night effect. The sun's position will also adjust the shadows of things, such as trees. There will also be various non-visual weather effects like drought.

The environment/landscape will also change with weather and seasons. Wind will make the leaves on trees move around and also blow small things around. Seasons will change and so will the color of the plantlife. Changes are gradual for each season, so for example, summer will have a step by step progression to fall.

I have attached an example of casting shadows and different leaf colors. I would also like to announce that the contributors for Oasis are:

Loriel - scripting
Birdbird - graphics
Falados - scripting
Konidias - a little of everything
