I haven't been this engrossed in a game since Deus Ex! That was many years ago too. Unfortunately Half Life 2 looks like Half Life 1 to me. I have every single detail turned down lowest, and I've got a 2.4Ghz processor, DirectX 9, a Radeon 9600 Pro with the latest drivers, but only 256MB of DDR RAM. I'm getting frame rates…
I am always astonished at how poor the economy / mileage on a lot of American cars is, compared to European or Japanese ones, especially given that on average a US citizen drives a lot further. I just checked, the Chrysler Sebring (first car I found which was about the same size/utility as my Civic) has a highway economy…

Sonic, I'd have to agree now. Those HD videos look pretty damn good. I don't know about the screenshots I saw then - they look like they're from a 480p source. Entirely non-HD.
@Ged - I rendered the shots with mental ray in maya to 620 x 480 size. Saved them as lower quality for the forum to avoid slowing down people's download speeds. But you make a valid point that I could use better plugins to render with. Thanks for those comments on the lighting, and I will be sure to play around with the…
I am just going to leave this here.

I've never noticed this problem (in any version of Max). Perhaps it is a video card driver compatibility issue. I've got a couple pet peeves in 2015, but I tried in many scenes (some with thousands of nodes) to replicate this problem. I could not experience it :) I also tested various display modes (Realistic, Shaded,…
