Shifting Shadows - Eastshade's Day-Night Cycle (An exercise in time-lapse photography)
De către Henrimagne
Not so much a guide as a showcase video celebrating the game's day-night cycle in a series of landscapes. Time-lapse photography.

Introduction
This is a video showcase created to honour the colourful views of Eastshade's day-night cycle.

At game speed it takes around one hour for the daily cycle to run its course, although this varied from location to location.
To speed up the cycle, a series of screenshots were taken for each scene - one every 30 seconds - roughly covering midnight to midnight. The resulting slides were then played in very quick succession creating a time-lapse sequence.

Watch as the landscape changes from night to day, goes through the noon solar eclipse, then brightens up again before it reverts back to night, revealing rich, beautiful colours and graphics.

A number of in-game locations were selected:

1) Lyndow Harbour
2) Nava Bridge Approach
3) Nessa's Balloon
4) Toll Bridge
5) Onur's House
6) Tiffmoor Ruins
7) Toma's Farm
8) Tiem's Obelisk
9) Windmill (Tiffmoor Bluffs)
10) Ice Landscape (Excavation Site)
11) Rapids (Blushwood Forest)
12) Great Shade
13) Mudwillow's Mirror
14) West Tower
15) Shipwreck (Ocean's Last Breath)

Until I watched your incredible work, I never realised that the 'Moon' was another completely different biome with an atmosphere. What wonderful marvels may await a traveller there?
