Cloud shadows above the clouds. Pls fix them.

[Jaws2002]

Since you plan to release a new lighting engine , can you please fix this anoying bug? It's anoying to get in the cloud shadow when you pass over clouds. Even more so, when you pass through a heavy cloud layer, once you get above, you expect to get back to unobstructed sunlight.

This bug was there from the release and now would be a good time to fix it, with the introduction of the new engine.

Thx.

Yes , I know , just wanted to add a twist to this
Let's hope the whole weather situation will be resolved and released soooon .
Ilya's talk about rewriting the game engine yet again makes me a bit nervous
since whatever was originally previously done for CloD might not work with
the constantly edited new game engine as it should and all these ready to be
released promised goods and visual sweet treat cookies which were done
quite some time ago may get yet another huge delay .
Nice pics

I'm also worried about the 'new" engine. The recent chanes ruined the beauty of this game. A little bit of this kind of "fixing" and i'll trash the bloody thing.
Those screens are all made with older versions of the game. Before the recent dumbing down of the graphics. In the last patch all the beautiful lighting effects were replaced with some cheap crappy HDR.
