[ QUOTE ] Unreal 3 can do displacement which no mainstream engine has even announced other than Epic's as far as i'm aware. [/ QUOTE ] Was it real time displacement or the parallax mapping they showed a while back?
DUBYA OH DUBYA WOW. Video 4 was just so amazing, I can't describe it. I absolutely cannot WAIT to see games that utilize this engine. Half-Life 2 ain't got shit on video 4. Seriously fucking impressed here.
Actually from what I have seen and even Ror mentioned. It wasnt the Gameplay issue that got nasty it was infighting between "vetrans" here about how good the engine was. Im still not sure why you didnt bother to settle that dispute with your admin abilities.
I'm definitely interested in the new tools. It really sounds like more and more control is being put directly into the artists hands and to me that is what is most impressive here. The vids looked great all around. I am jealous that Unreal engine licensees will be working with this tech.
Vermillion/Daz. Its obvious your a fan boy of the tech. How about instead critising my "eyesight", pay attention that there is already tech out RIGHT now that is as good as what was being demo'd. -Atleast visually I seriously doubt if you had the EXACT same demo level in U3 engine and HL2 engine or even D3 engine that…
Wow!! ....what can I say...absolutely...totally...f'ckin...impressive...especially the 4th video demo....the detail in the environments, the whole scope of the level...I think I broke my jaw after it hit the desk...hats off to Epic...stunning engine capabilities....good find pogonip btw...
AFAIK, we don't know when a game using this engine will come out, or what hardware the "standard consumer" will have when one does come out. I don't think you mentioned this, but did you do any of the assets we see there, Ror? If so, can you point them out?
Pogo: Aye, I fully expect id to come out with another killer engine, thats always been the pattern before. I always enjoy the spectacle of 'what next'. Verm: Nice to read that someone is using common sense. Theres 512mb cards around and on their way for general use, but we're not that special that we've all got em dammit...
[ QUOTE ] Dude, Unreal3 looks no different than HL2 to me. And that shitty projection screen in the video hardly did justice to the detail the game probally has. And you can bet your ass they are running that shit on some serious hardware to make it look good. Of course they are, they dont want their demo studdering so…
people, we are very fortunate to have professionals who continue to enrich our community. if Ror or anyone else at Epic wants a liberal dose of whining, they've got their own official messageboards providing more than ample supply. Sett, Elysium, keep it to yourselves or follow Ror's suggestion. the videos and this thread…
