2022-04-13 15:31:12 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a very early test version of Chronos spectral. Expect bugs and missing features.
The version of Magnificent that is available to download is really just a proof of concept. It is not optimized, lacks features I could easily add and is generally just a mess, but it is a mess tha...
2022-01-27 19:57:31 +0000 UTC View PostThis is nothing more than a proof of concept version of spectral Chronos. As a result it is missing features and is overall poorly made. Assume that any bugs you encounter are known about and exclu...

2021-10-05 19:10:13 +0000 UTC View PostThis test update isn't substantial enough for me to lock it behind a Patreon wall at all, plus I want to let more people use this since I am proud of what I got implemented in it.

2021-08-29 03:09:58 +0000 UTC View PostThe first beta for NV is coming up soon, so I want to ask what feature people want to see out of these four.

Because I want to celebrate the launching of this, and I feel putting a shaderpack behind the tiers right away would be a little scummy, here is Chronos v4.0.2a. Only works on NVidia right now, but...
