Sky & water


Neb

Recommended Posts

I have just reinstalled TDM and all of the skies seem to have a strange FOV, like you're zooming into them with binoculars.

 

Similarly, when I jump into water my entire vision does this. Water also appears either black on the surface, or with severe visual ripping/artifacts (not sure how to describe).

 

Win XP SP3, Intel T2300 @1.33Ghz (2 CPUs), 1 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400.

 

Unfortunately I can't update my drivers since it's a shitty Sony laptop that seems to be locked in.

There seems to be a square in the bottom left corner of the screen where water renders correctly.

 

I took some screenshots of the zoomed sky and underwater scenes, but there's probably little point in posting them since you can hardly make out anything.

that square was the bane of my existence for over a month. unfortunately i only got it when i was playing with the material shaders for water inside a skybox, trying to make it do illegal things.

 

what you'll probably need to do is update your drivers anyway, even though your laptop doesn't want to.

Try this: NVIDIA Mobility Modder

      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!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
