Did you try Win 8? You tell it to go right to the desktop at boot and you don't have to deal with anything Metro. It's like a streamlined Win 7 then. I've been using it since release and I had about 0 contact with anything Metro or any metro apps except for the redesigned Start screen (aka the new start button), which…

Man this brings me back. Good work so far. Your castle geo is the best. Good over all shapes and accurate theme. A few things though. The surrounding rock/mountain shapes, not so great. The geo is flat and it's not the right Helms Deep style. If your willing to spend that amount of geo on that many boulders in the scene, i…
The only issue this game has on PC is that id Software should have known better and added the right options to the UI... Not the shit they pumped out. After creating the cache folder, and adding just these few items to the shortcut: vt_pageimagesizeuniquediffuseonly2 16384 vt_pageimagesizeuniquediffuseonly 16384…

(First off though, you need to shift the idea of "AAA quality" vs "indie quality". Some of the best developers in the world work for tiny indies) Given…
