I love the new rpg model. or old.
I think i get alittle bit drunk at thw webbing today/
Played HL2 until I came in City 17 again…I like the HDR, but it’s definitely a work in progress, because some things are really off.
Come on guys this is not worth a discussion. Source Engine water is just a piece of shadered texture.
This is the real stuff:
Ya but the source engine can get good looking water on a lower end computer.
yes. the great CryEngine. designed to make your PC cry because we don’t care about optimizing.
Well with CryEngine 3 they have to make sure it runs on the puny console hardware so I guess it might actually work well this time.
Holy shi-! Is that a game!
yup. an entire 1 frame of it too. great stuff.
That’s Crysis on the highest settings.
I can play it on High on mine… 
Maybe you should stop playing your with pokey-mans and start playing real games.
oh my…
I can play it on beyond highest, I have a special .cfg file.
Plus you have your .bat that disables everything that’s not necessary to keep your computer running, iirc.
I don’t really think that’s the most fair comparison. It doesn’t seem like the crysis pic is running on high and they are two different types of water effects, the difference between a stream and an ocean. I think crytek actually got ocean water pretty well. I myself like the episode 2 water better but that’s just because I like that type of water better, not necessarily because it was better done.
Can someone help me?
Something looks different when I’m playing Half-Life 2
I mean something, I can’t put my finger on it
But it has something to do with the lighting
How can I fix it?
I finished all the HL2 the other day and it looks pretty good now. Admittedly Breen was an albino on the screens and he remained seated despite Gordon’s entrance, but the HDR maps look brilliant. It also appears if there was an AI update because I’ve never had CP Officers charge at me firing in the canals.
Highway 17 is probably the best looking now, especially the ocean which previously had very obvious repeating textures but now looks totally random. Unfortunately there appears to be a fuck up with the Dune Buggy hitbox, which made it impossible for me to play chicken with the razor train, being catapulted miles into the air even when I had at least 2m of clearance. The solution is of course to handbrake turn and drive away but that’s not half as fun.
The Nova Prospekt part of the game seems more brighter then usual, that’s what it is
EDIT: Nevermind, just started a new game when I reached the next chapter, fixed it completely
So it’s not just me, then. I was infuriated because I’d always been able to make it just fine and it kept, as you said, catapulting me into the air.
I don’t think it’s a hitbox problem, rather it was made slower, so that you don’t have enough time to go past. This was probably because it uses the speed from the car in EP2.
I noticed the nicer water, too.
And I, too, flew with the buggy.
