TBH, this mod is practically obsolete in 1.5.

In 1.4 there was an obvious issue with how roof eaves rendered but, the picture in the mod's description is not really the best to show the the problem. The building is highlighted along the left hand side, when really it should be the south where the render problem can be seen much easier.

Basically, 1.4 had a glaringly obvious issue with eave shadows in vanilla, and Perspective: Eaves fixed that problem by darkening the roof shadow as can be seen in the link below:

1.4 comparison >>> https://ibb.co/C3N6QWXj

The shadow cast my the building in the picture is truncated close to the building where the lighter roof eave shadow is. But in 1.5 they changed up how they implement shadowing, and now it is no longer an issue, making this mod obsolete.

All a 1.5 update would do is slightly darken the eave shadows

Roof eaves were fixed in 1.5

Ferris seems to be working on updating OwlChemist's mods. as of writing this, they're missing most of the "perspective" series (including this mod), but it's worth checking if you're seeing this in the future:

This mod breaks dev mode...

Did @OwelChemist stop modding?

can concur, its busted

Busted in 1.5 to the point where I can't dev actions menu with it installed???
Oh well, it isn't a must-have mod for me.

does this still work in 1.5?

great mod but the weather goes through outdoors roofing and also any vents and objects like vents

Love the perspective mods, but having the weather appear as if its going through the roof is immersion-breaking for me, unfortunately. Appreciate there are technical difficulties surrounding making this work properly so I had to unsub, but I do appreciate the work put into making this mod. Everyone's mileage may vary.

Ah. Thats cool! I still cant see it :( Ill just try it and see how it looks haha. I feel like a grandfather now....

@Shayle its a bit hard to see in the box but you can see better along the bottom edge of the building. There is no shadow within 1 tile of the building and the shadow is larger on the right most side to include the roof along the edge of the building.

I had no idea such a word existed! Eaves! Thanks for this. I've always been bothered seeing that graphical glitch every time!

Ok, I know Im getting old, and I cant see as well as I used to.... but....

Does anyone else not see any difference between the pics? :(

Not my intention to hit on the mod, just laughing at my age.

were is the comms console? i cant find it in research or buldings, so can you please tell me where it is?

I will hope that someday you will be able to solve the problem. Thank you for your efforts.

@Demon - looks like an outdoor roof in that screenshot. See known issues above. I'm afraid it's not a perfect mod given the way the graphics are setup in the game, and up to users to decide which is worse - lack of shadows or weather passing through outdoor roofs.

Aha! The rain interaction thing was confusing me --- I'll try the 'invisible door' trick. :D

Oh my god this graphical bug has annoyed me for the longest time, you sir are a legend.

not work

I never knew I needed this (not unlike all your other mods <3)

Finally. Thank you kindly.

@Owlchemist
I didn't expect so much support for my question. you are really nice guy in this community! I'm gonna try those methods. Thank you for your time.

I ain't been droppin' no eaves sir

Detailed all of this in the description above.

...and another way to do it would be to use any mod that lets you somehow make the warehouse think it's indoors, like for example invisible doors.

@LizAbell - as a dirty hack, if you use the devmode, you could replace your warehouse roof with natural roofs like thin rock. That would block the weather fx (the same reason it works for caves).

@Owlchemist
Wow that's fast response! Thank you for the answer. Understood. I hope this limitation solved in the future, this mod is too good to miss! I love your work. ^^

@LizABell - Unfortunately that's just a technical limitation of the mod given the way rimworld's shadowing works. Afraid it may not work for every play style out there. I've been on and off trying to see if there's a way to work around this, but's possibly the most difficult system I've worked with to figure out.

Hi, Thank you for the great mod!
But when I have this mod in my load order, rain and snows ignore outdoor roof, rendering on those roofed tiles.
I tend to build open warehouse which has roof but no door, then I noticed this.
When I remove this mod from load order, snow and rain cease to ignore outdoor roofs.
Do I also need to output log?

Update: Fixes indoor roofs sometimes graphically acting as outdoor roofs (showing weather passing through and shadow behavior).

very niceee

OwlChemist is a god modder uwu

Owl only drinks the blood of penguins.

Oh. :(

Dude! Another wonderful mod. You need Coffee!

@aceofplagues - thanks, yeah there's a link at the bottom there (just added it now, I forgot).

Owl your mods are fantastic and only getting better. I love mods that are so well optimized that I know I can add them without much worry about lag. Since I'm using all of them do you have a patreon or a link to buy you a coffee?

Every mod so far from this dev is an instant addition to my list

you're a great guy at the peak of detail

Mastapeece

Another Banger that i didnt know i needed. Ty bro <3

The last few Owlchemist mods:
Me: Have I ever noticed that this is a problem?
Also Me: No. I doubt I'd even notice if I installed this mod.
Me: What if I notice now that Owlchemist has pointed it out?
Also Me: Ooh, good point. Better install it, just to be safe.

Somehow I've never noticed this. Or maybe I didn't notice what was causing it. Thank you. :)

was about to complain about the rain issue but then i actually dared to read the description xD

Woah, I can finally protect my pathways from toxic fallout without my base looking glitched and awful! Thanks!
