While working on my translucent glass material, I suddenly noticed the same stripes and artifacts Kingsal has in his Volta 2 mission for all the water materials. They weren't there before, but it looks like I had in-game anti-aliasing set to x2. When I turned it off, the artifacts appeared. To test this, I launched Volta 2 with in-game AA x2, and the artifacts were gone. It seems like there's connection between in- game AA and refraction.

 

I have no idea about engine programming, but isn't it something about engine precision? Maybe similar stuff to BSP holes and lower dmapping precision than 2.05? It seems like something got broken in that department.

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!
