awesome, speaking about the sky, is there a way to do so that the sky would be editable? (texture, and not clouds)

cool, makes things easier to do.
now something else, it reflects everything?
(I mean, rockets and explosion and such to?)

(ueh, the meaning of the spoiler was only the hide the big quote, seems like I don't know how to use it properly)


Definitely! Rockets, explosions, dazzles, lights, the sky, clouds, etc!


It would be a big bonus to have improvement in those areas.

Does this mean the map has to be rendered twice? (ie; moar lags)

Yes, but that's nowhere near as expensive as you think it is; physics are only simulated once and that is what causes the most lag. I've had this system render the map 5 times over without a major drop in FPS.

The reflection looks great; my only concern is that in some angles, it looks very tiled. Not so much when you're standing close to the water, but when on a higher plain looking into the distance, it looks a lot like the water is a bunch of squares. Is there any way to make it look smoother therein?

something good i suppose!

anyways... this 0.0 coordinate point where a nod vehicle "spawns" before he gets into the aircraft to be delivered upon the airstrip, is that going to be fixed?

and what about outside PT's

tbh they should be removed

Like SH said, you can turn all shinies off. And without the shinies ren has actually become a little less heavy.

I don't know if you're trying to square up to SaberHawk, but if you are at least know what you're talking about before you do. It is extremely -easy- to add a bloom effect, so you should stop trying to show off your e-penis.

I've also never had any frame-rate drop with 3.4.4 + bloom.

I think the 0,0 thingy was already discussed elsewhere, but not sure. As for the outside PT's, its a bit of an annoying subject. Problem is taht on certain maps (like field) it migth unbalance gameplay since GDI players would need to walk alot further for a PT from the most used beacon sites. Currently we have not fixed them AFAIK.

Don't remember for sure, but I think people agreed it'd be best if the server owners would be able to put that fix in or leave it out.

But true, it's a pretty big balance issue. Nuking the back of barracks would become so much easier on pretty much all maps. Razz
