2.13.6 Rainbow, night mode

Post by par »

What's new?
- The very first landscape with night view.
New York - Empire State Building.
Check it out in "Wonders of the world" collection.

- Test. Rainbow effect.
We are going to show Rainbow rare. Probably once in a week.
But now we want to make sure Rainbow looks good and you like it.
So in this build Rainbow is always displayed in the day when the Sun is out.

It's a well known fact that you can see a rainbow only if the Sun is behind you.
But in YoWindow the Sun is always on screen.
We have no choice but to show them both.

Please let us know if you like Rainbow effect.

- Test. Raising the flag. We are going to show a flag raising animation on special occasions.
In this build the flag in Americana landscape is being raised on opening.
But only this build, to test the effect.

- FIXED: Planes missing in Airport landscape.
- A number of crashes fixed.
- Translations updated.

Hi Pasha,

4.1.2 Lenovo
4.4.4 Samsung Prevail
6.0.1 Samsung J3
all ran with no crashes.

5.3.6.4 Amazon Fire 7 tablet which is actually 5.6.3.0
ran with no crashes.

8.0.0 Xiaomi Mi Box
ran with no crashes.

Mount Washington, New Hampshire had dense fog.
The rainbow was displayed with the fog.
That is the only problem that I found.

I like the rainbow, raising of the flag, and the night view of Empire State Building.

Looks like a temporary problem with an access to the server.
Do you still experience it?

I tried the rainbow and the night view on a

Huawei p30 lite
HUAWEI media Pad T5
Moto G4 Plus

On all devices there were no problems
The rainbow looks great. It is very realistic

And it seems to me if it only appears when the sun stands low, like in real world.

I tried the nigh view with my own pictures, it works wonderful. But parallax does not work with night view, does it?

Is there a description of all the parameters that exist for depth_map, parallax, and night view in landscape.ywlj?

Hi, Chris!
Thank you!
We didn't add parallax effect to night-views just because the lack of time.
If you are making your own landscapes you can add parallax.

I wonder if you make your own landscapes? :)

This is how night view is added to Empire State Building landscape.ywlj manifest.
For night view you need to add files that named with "night_" prefix
night_photo.jpg
night_mask.png
night_depth_map.jpg

"views": [{
"id": "night",
"name":"Night",
"photoAuthor":"Source",
"photoUrl":"https://pxhere.com/ru/photo/1263554",
"entrance":"instant",

"horizonLevel":650,

"depthMap": {
"nearMeters": 50,
"farMeters": 1500,
"horizonStartDepth": 0.50,
"horizonMeters": 20000
}
}],
