That was just the first beta run using the GEX master files.
The 2nd beta build added dynamic lighting to the streets, in other words you not only see the whiter lighting it brightens as you get close and dims as you move away from it, to the point where it emits enough light to act like a real light, almost to the point that you must turn your head from looking at a bright light when your eyes are accustomed to the dark, so, the performance killing UTX lighting is not needed. None of the shots above have UTX lighting in them. thats all GEX textures.
There is zero frame cost, none.
Yes, it is official and I can announce it, all my mods both day and night will be part of the net GEX update due out soon.
