New screens lights shafts and...

Post by Tabulanis »

Ok I got that bug worked around.
The new one I just found was more a rule no one knew - Dont clone static meshes. It kills every thing.

Wish I knew that. a couple weeks ago.

Anyway new shots of a dope *** room.

The shadows cast from the window are wide area so as the player moves towards the back wall away from the window they go from blured to solid and vice versa like real area shadows.[/img]

LOL Andy, you made me choke on my coffee.

You scare me...
:lol:
Just fun. That looks amazing. I especially like the effect with the light 'flowing' out of the window. Is that transparent brush geometry?

The light shining through is a static mesh proxy. The walls and floor are BSP and the blanket is static mesh.

I'll post shots of an almost all BSP room right next to that witch is all BSP. Same look though. Less light effects.

I wish there was another type of entity that would show ALL it faces no matter what for transperent fog and lighting effects and only apprear if you are in the right location.

I tell you man. with a few changes this engine would be huge. Just have to focus on the right things.

Wow, that is amazing to say the least. I am verynew to this whole 3D scene, still learning modeling. But to see stuff like this done just gives me somethign to aspire too.

You textures and lighting effects are so ... just great. You should, if you ever get time, try and write a small tutorial on textures and/or lighting effect as I think everyone would appreciate it greatly!

you might also want to know the spec of his computer and frame rates, as could be using a massive graphics card so doing 60 frames per second where as if you got a rubish graphics card like my self then it may be 20 - 25 frames per second
