<hr />I hope that the toolset will alow a builder to apply bloom (with custom parametres) to some areas of the module while not to others...<hr />It will. You will have complete control over all of those settings for the various stages of the day/night cycle...to include things like the sunlight direction, colors and intensities, ambient lights (yes plural) colors and intensities, bloom settings, cloud cover, shadow intensity, and the list goes on. You will find out quickly that the new lighting engine is extremely powerful.

Well I was going to wait until tomorrows update to post about this (but the cat always seems to get out of the bag early) Im going say people need to stay on topic and stop sniping at each other from all sides! And I do mean ALL sides!
If you cant say anything nice and or positive, dont post! I'm getting complaints from all sides and enough is enough!
Lastly, people need to stop insinuating that anyone speaks for either myself or Obsidian in any semi-official capacity. I give a certain leeway to the mods and that's all. If your not a mod then dont do it!
I'm not going to play favorites here people. If you thought it was draconian to simply delete posts and ban people for blatant attacks on the developer that's the tip of the iceberg. I'll even be more draconian and start booting people with zero warning and you can all hate me instead of each other.
Clean it up, or take it to another forum!
