Technology-wise, a new method of lighting has been implemented, wherein outdoor lighting (which previously was handled by a light_environment entity and produced only static lighting) now casts harsh, directional shadow maps similar to env_projectedtexture. Details about the inner workings of this method have yet to be revealed.
