Third alpha of the new SparkIV: cutscenes look more like the game, above all the water, the sky and the light.

Install: download reditec.SparkIV-win-Setup.exe and run it; an installed 0.9.0-alpha.1 or alpha.2 offers this update by itself at start. Windows may show a SmartScreen warning because the app isn't signed yet: choose "More info → Run anyway".

New

  • Cutscenes: the water mirrors as in the game – far buildings only, no ground, broken up by its waves.
  • Cutscenes: the water's waves are there from the start, breaking up its mirror as in the game.
  • Cutscenes: the sky is no longer too white and the clouds no longer pink.
  • Cutscenes: depth of field also blurs the foreground, and the picture is softened as in the game.
  • Cutscenes: lamps light walls and rooms as in the game (bc_3's granite wall, Bernie's flat).
  • Cutscenes: see-through glass shows its reflection as in the game (Bernie's glass table).
  • Cutscenes: cutscene lights light faces as brightly as in the game.
  • After an update, SparkIV shows what's new right away.
