What is KappaPT?

Some of you may already know the Kappa Shader of mine, this is a very similar pack but instead of relying on the vanilla lightmap it is using worldspace path-tracing to fully replace the lightmap. It delivers accurate blocklight emission, skylight occlusion as well as global illumination through that. Of course this does come at the cost of increased code complexity and reduced performance as well as being much more time consuming and challenging to work on. Thus I have decided to turn this into a separated pack, which is available through patreon for said reasons
KappaPT is available for Tier 3 Patrons (10€), with less frequently updated but in turn more stable versions being available for Tier 2 (5€). If you can't or won't pay, the normal Kappa Shader should provide more than reasonably good results for you, especially with its SSPT emission which has brought it a big step closer to the results of path-traced shaderpacks when it comes to the prominent colored lighting and global illumination.

It’s time to go through some new updates again, although there aren’t quite as many this time as I’ve been a bit more occupied with other things lately.

Since it feels a bit unreasonable to make posts for every small hotfix update I’ll just do bundled update posts like this from now on, which contain a bit more information at once.

Now that the bot is up and running as well as the Patreon integration on this website it’s time to get back into updates. I’ll just start right away with some smaller changes I’ve done to KappaPT since the last update.
