LethalSponge

[1.1.8]

• The meshCombiner (used for LODs) will now skip over invalid meshes and not bother throwing exceptions.

[1.1.7]

• fixComplexMeshes has expanded to include More Company Cosmetics. This can be toggled with the new fixComplexCosmetics config, and scrap/tools can be toggled with the new fixComplexGrabbable config.
• If minimalLogging is false, fixComplexMeshes will report what Mesh names, GameObject names, and vertex counts it is fixing.
• Added new fixComplexMeshesGameObjectBlacklist, so that specific GameObject names can be exempt from fixComplexMeshes. This will sometimes be more accurate/unique than fixComplexMeshesBlacklist.
• Improved performance of fixComplexMeshes slightly.
• Fixed LODs conflicting with model swap mods by adding a re-check of LODs on 'SyncScrapValuesClientRpc'.
• Added a new vSyncCount config to the Rendering section, for changing what VSyncCount level is used when the game is set to "Use monitor (V-Sync)".

[1.1.6]

• Improved Texture dupe checking.
• Improved Audio dupe checking.
• Changed De-Dupe to be off by default. I think this is about as accurate as I can make it and there's still going to be some false positives. I still recommend it for anyone who has heavy VRAM/RAM limitations, as it will help with that.

[1.1.5]

• Improved Texture dupe checking.
• Added generateLODMeshes, false by default, to enable generating meshes for LODs. With this change the LOD system will no longer simplify meshes by default and will only handle reducing lighting quality and culling at distance. This should help with load times, as the simpler LOD meshes weren't accomplishing much anyway.
• Added JetpackItem to generateLODsBlacklist by default.

[1.1.4]

• Added generateLODsBlacklist to disable LOD generation for specific GameObjects. Extension Ladders and Lockpickers are on there by default.
• Added fixComplexMeshesBlacklist to disable simplification for specific meshes. Use this if there's an overly complex mesh that you don't want simplified.
• Changed default value of cullStart from 0.02 to 0.01, this should fix pop-in on very small items.

[1.1.3]

• Mesh Deduping will no longer dedupe collision meshes that are marked as non-readable.

[1.1.2]

• Audio Deduping now takes into account Length, Frequency, and Channels.
• Texture Deduping will now never dedupe Font Atlases.

[1.1.1]

• Fixed mesh deduping to also consider isReadable when comparing meshes.
• Fixed mesh simplification to preserve isReadable when simplifying.
• Added "scavengerplayermodel" to deDupeTextureBlacklist defaults.

[1.1.0]

• Added new Deduping system, to remove duplicate assets from mod loads. Relevant configs are in the new Dedupe category. Every mod that uses a base game asset loads another copy of it into memory, and this system goes through and unloads those extras. I'll be revising and expanding this system over the next updates, if there are any issues please report them on the Github or Discord thread.
• Added new Texture Resizing system. Relevant configs are in the new Textures category. This will resize textures that are over a certain size and reduce VRAM usage.
• Added new Automatic LOD and Mesh Simplification system. Relevant configs are in the new Meshes category. I'll be revising and expanding this system over the next updates, if there are any issues please report them on the Github or Discord thread. Currently the system only works on GrabbableObjects (scrap and tools).
• Added cameraRenderTransparent config (true by default), which sets whether the ship/security cameras should render transparent objects.
• Added compensationMoonBlacklist config (empty by default), which is a list of moons where volumetricCompensation will be disabled while outside. Use this for modded moons that become too foggy with volumetricCompensation.
• Changed minimalLogging config to default to true.
• Changed lightVolumetricDistCap config to default to 250f instead of 150f, it was a bit overtuned for default.

[1.0.9]

• Updated Config values to allow setting all values back up to LC defaults.
• If a value is set to max/LC default, then it will not be changed by Sponge. This should allow better compat with other mods that effect these values.
• Removed a leftover instance of Camera.render.
• Fixed ship cameras not updating properly while spectating and using patchCameraScript.

[1.0.8]

• Fixed lights with 0 base range having their fade distance set to 0 with changeLightFadeDistance enabled. Now there is a minimum fade distance of 5m.

[1.0.7]

• Made the WIP shader the new default replacement. You can access the previous shader with useLegacyCustomShader, if you preferred it. For people who were using the WIP shader, make sure to re-enable useCustomShader.
• Cleaned up the camera-finding methods.
• Fixed a typo in reflectionAtlasSize description.

[1.0.6]

• Many more changes to the WIP Shader, text on the monitor should be more readable. This is approaching "good enough" level for me now, and if there aren't any major issues before next update it will likely be graduating from WIP.
• Added a new initial call to UnloadUnusedAssets upon reaching the main menu if unloadUnused is enabled.
• Fixed the security camera monitor by the ship door not updating if the other monitors were not in view.

[1.0.5]

• Added volumetricCompensation config in Rendering (on by default) that will modify light intensity and fog thickness to account for the changes in the custom shaders. This should match vanilla's look more closely, especially in regards to fog density.
• Many changes to the WIP Shader, mainly fixing the color format and HSL calculations to fix artifacting.
• Fixed minimalLogging doing the opposite of what it said. (adding logging when true, removing when false)
• Fixed useWIPCustomShader requiring useCustomShader.

[1.0.4]

• Added a new WIP shader (off by default, set using useWIPCustomShader) with more of that 'lethal company charm'. It's still not there yet, but this should be a little closer. It's disabled by default while I work out the visual stylings.
• Added minimalLogging config under Investigation. This will disable the readout of how many objects were cleaned up/how many objects are loaded total, which may reduce the stutter when cleanup occurs on day rollover.
• Fixed the interior camera using the exterior camera's framerate settings, which could cause it not to work if you had one set to limited framerate and the other not.
• Moved InputActions initialization later, which should hopefully solve issues with mouselook not working when fixInputActions was enabled.
• Removed /sponge shader chat command when useCustomShader is disabled, to avoid confusion.

[1.0.3]

• Added a new chat command '/sponge shader' that will toggle between base lethal company's shader and sponge's replacement.
• Added more values to reflectionAtlasSize (whoops, didn't realize I initially tested with LethalPerformance on and thought their default was LC default.)
• Added config to set the security camera clip plane.
• Added configs to disable the camera quality overrides for the Ship/Security/Map cameras.
• Split the framerate configs for Ship/Security cameras.
• Changed camera fps configs so that if they are set to 0 the cameras will run at full framerate.
• Reworked Lethal Company's ManualCameraRenderer fps limiting to be more performant (Thanks Zagster)
• Fixed a compatibility issue with ModelReplacementAPI

[1.0.2]

• Reworked custom pass to work better with additional cameras, fixes compatibility issues with Imperium and TooManyEmotes.
• Fixed NRE when Remove posterization shader was disabled but Use custom shader was not.

[1.0.1]

• Reworked how the new Posterization shader is implemented to avoid compatibility errors with Diversity.

[1.0.0]

• Initial Release.
