!!! VERY nice...
Uh... now that we've seen it, what's the point of going to dpcon?

EDIT:
Question-- does that water take fresnel into account?

jitspoe · « **Reply #3 on:** June 15, 2005, 05:42:00 PM »

You haven't actually seen it in action though -- just screenshots. It looks better when it's animated, trust me.

Plus water won't be all there is to see.

And yes, Fresnel is taken into account. Look at the first shot -- see how you can see the crate up close clearly, but the water near the shore is almost completely reflective? I faked it a little bit because a true Fresnel equation made it too hard to see though the water

Eiii · « **Reply #4 on:** June 15, 2005, 09:36:59 PM »

Ah. Well, will there be an option to turn the reflectiveness off? Mapside? Clientside?

jitspoe · « **Reply #5 on:** June 15, 2005, 10:11:35 PM »

Of course. Older video cards wouldn't even be able to handle it anyway.

and in the branstorm shot, what happened to the murky water? It became clear.

And it didn't become clear, the muddy texture is still there, NEWBx2.

Jit,

That's fantastic! I guess with this mod you can now do reflective glass??

jitspoe · « **Reply #10 on:** June 16, 2005, 11:16:20 AM »

Reflective glass would be too slow. With water, there's usually just one surface. With glass, though? Lots of re-renders would be required. The best thing to do there is have the mapper create a cubemap and apply that--not realtime, but it should work for a subtle effect.

How bout just entities can be reset at round start?

EDIT: If the new gametype is DM koth, or get the guy with the flag, people will die.
