no, the "modding map" update will arrive later, how late? No idea but it will arrive. The next beta release *should* include cpu improvements and bug squashing
It's especially hard, when your game is not properly designed and you "design as you go". It seems parts of the project are still at the prototyping stage and haven't even reached alpha. I still think it is a promising project, but the way it is managed...
...And let's not forget, this isn't even a proper game, it's a scene creator, similar to Virt A Mate but far less complex. It's pretty obvious the developers are just winging it at this point. I mean, who seriously asked for "in-game rendering closer to Blender" when there are so many anime style characters? What's the point of enhancing lighting and realism when the character models already look completely out of place?
They'd better use 4 point lights, raytracing and reflex (Vam I mean), have you seen what their characters look like in direct ambient light? LMFaO straight from PS2.
Though it is about the lightning, the update is deeper than that. At first, new maps were tested, several in fact, since it was part of the general updates promised last year (i think? don´t quote me on that). After the team added maps, there were several bugs, all related to lightning, so new maps were added and tested. The problems remained and the team decided that adding a better lightning would let the "buggy" maps to be implemented. Now you know why the maps and the lightning update are linked together, can´t have one without the other.
Bro, I have posted examples using your work before, and I'm not a coder, very far from it. It's not difficult, just use my example for "Brotherhood" to see how it's done. You'll improve the quality of your work and I'm sure everyone here will appreciate it.
Hi! Question. On your scenes. If I take the whole folder and put them in captures, they do not show up in the scene selector. If I put them instead in mods/scripts they cause the game to blackscreen and crash. How exactly are you supposed to install these?
paste the folder CONTENT in the captures folder, just the files, not the folder
The games' render system being similar to blender potentially makes modding (characters and maps) a lot easier. If materials and textures work just like in blender, they only need to provide a template for the ingame-skeleton(s) and maybe conventions for additional vertex groups, physics assets etc. Seems like their goal is to enable custom character/map import after all.
If you set up the lighting correctly, set it up and turn on the maximum quality settings in the game, you'll get this.
The optimization in the Virt a Mate game is terrible, I agree. On my computer, in this scene, let's say I get at least 30 FPS. This is in a dynamic scene, but in static ones it's mostly 50 FPS or more.
