1.yes

2.yes

3.yes

[Melan]

1 and 3 are improvements; as it is, 2 is a bit garish in my opinion.

[Bikerdude]

and another two:

I thin your new official title should be 'The patchwork wizard'

[Baddcog]

yes

not really (maybe in some cases, but it's too saturated. And way too colorful for this area imo)

yes

[stumpy]

how does the wooden door on the right open, it doesn't look like it could go up, or sideways, maybe it goes downwards, even if its not a functional door it should look functional, it just looks odd.

Actually I disagree slightly. The player should be able to identify functional and non-functional doors by looking at them, simply because of gameplay.

In real life you can go through any door. This is a game and you cannot possibly make all doors passable in a city scene. Some doors will be passable and some will not. You don't want the player expending equipment to reach a door which cannot be opened. My own suggestion to this is:

• If a door is openable, let it have a handle or other visible useable part.
• Non-openable doors look like openable doors but do not have a handle at all.

Thatswhy i asked about the 3 points...not all is finished on the screen...

And what sotha said its usefull for the player to see what is passable and what not. But the dore/gate will be fixed at all, give u a screen this evening

 

Edit:

 

changed the lights on the window ( darker now) and give the gate a bit more love...but i think there should be more to do on it

And today we proudly presents a "hightris production" by Johannes Burock...

 

...sewer - first blood

 

 

 

i know there is much to do with the walls and in parts the light...thatswhy first blood...

[STiFU]

Simply brilliant. You really know your way around level editing! With those screens, you should easily be able to apply for a job in a game studio, if you wanted to...

[Melan]

Are those stone blocks in the stairs patches? Or models? Staggering.

Very cool I'd like to have such a scene as a testbed for the model combiner. To see how it improves the performance.

After Bikerdude give me the name "patchwork wizard" the answer should be clear ^^

[Johannes Burock]

without sound the sewers arentn the same...so have a look here ( a bit dark in the shadows...)

But wouldn't one also hear the waterfall from the start of the sewers, too? In these small rooms with hard walls the sound would travel rather far.

crearly yes, but than you have the water/pool, the drips, the waterfall and other here not specified and in the vid nongiven sounds and this would be a big soundclots...but this is also a point to work on...

[Springheel]

Man, you've ruined me for brush stairs.

[Johannes Burock]

so my new system is now running stable...after 3 days of hard work:

 

Intel core I5 2500K (overclocked to 4x 4,5 in turbo)

ATI HD 6950 2 GB (flashed up to a HD 6970...and overclocked)

2x4 GB G.Skill Ripjaw 1333 cl 7 7 7 21

1st drive = SSD

 

so if the next looks a little bit to highrisked...give me a nudge^^

WOOOOOOOW!!!! What a nice area! Very cool use of sound, grafic and new stuff

 

 

 

 

EDIT: "Intel core I5 2500K (overclocked to 4x 4,5 in turbo)" : I'm getting very very jealous - a very good machine

simply the best I have seen in TDM thus far..

[Johannes Burock]

so today a problem i didnt find in the forum:

 

since ive got the ati hd 6950 my sky isnt working as it should be...

 

if i integrate the prefabeskybox (so no mistakes done by me...) , go into game and look into the sky:

 

looking up and down, sky rotates up and down...

 

looking right / left, sky rotates clock or anticlockwise...

 

is this a knowen prob (with ati ?) ?

[7upMan]

Yes, just disable Catalyst AI, and you're good to go.

[Johannes Burock]

I am both stumped and faszinated by posts on this forum like:

 

Same problems to me and its on directX11 as wel AMD please repair this before crysis 2 comes out bekous Crysis 2 needs MLAA to run with nise graphics o and i have 2 radeon HD 6850 Cards and i think its not the Vsync) its MLAA it has problems on DirectX 10 and 11 you can stop this problem but u will need to put your MLAA off when u play DirectX 10 or 11 games the vsync will work again with no screen problems if u put MLAA off when u play games under DirectX 10 and 11 i did this and it works

 

I think scientists will need to build a new super computer to crack this encryption

## If it is you could still change it by editing your profiles.xml found at "\Users\'YourUserName'\AppData\Local\ATI\ACE\Profiles.xml"
## Under the heading <Aspect name="Radeon3D"> needs to be an entry :-
## Code:

<Feature name="CatalystAI"> 
<Property name="CatalystAI" value="Disable" />
</Feature>

 

 

Have you tried either creating an Application Profile or the above workaround...?
