top content contributor? seriously? are you on drugs?

I don't even play the game any more except for an occasional FSO in spite of it being my favorite game of all time I just can no longer bring my sense of disbelief far enough to pretend I am flying an airplane when playing it any more and its not a flight model problem it is a graphics one. I would like nothing more than this graphics problem so many players who love the game but have been spoiled by modern graphics are experiencing resolved.

I have a new main arena 99% done that I am so disgusted with when I look at it compared to what the competition is doing that I have lost all motivation to finish it and submit it. and it is the most detailed thought out and contoured map ever seen in AH.

No Festless, I think it's more likely that you are the substance abuser. You haven't made sense in even half of your posts.

Dolbster, you can change your whine now, but it doesn't change your past. When I told you that you would not be getting the sounds you threw a tirade, which you are still on now. If you didn't want them, you wouldn't keep bringing it up.

The fact is that there are a few thousand people that play this game. Not all of them are fliers. We could get more in playing the game and having fun. Fester is both asking for change, and at the same time crying that something might change.

I have not brought up your sounds, you did. Your Copyright antics in sound threads is what I eluded to.

How can/could you not see that, can you not see passed your own nose, would you like to borrow my glasses?

The AH graphics engine cannot become obsolete

The improvements in pc hardware will make any older engine work more effectively

Multigen has nothing to do with our graphic engine.  Never has.  It is what we use for content creation.  Just because another application looks better when it has 20 times more content, does not mean it is "graphic engine" related.  There is a difference between art and engine.

Why no response to this Citfestria?

Because he has been wrong in every comment he has made.

you mean the map that you have "deleted" 2 times already?  I have never seen a more whiny, needing, craving for attention, gown man than you.

either quit or stop rage quitting.

Actually Dolbish you don't interest me at all. What you consider as accusations are pretty much facts. You two, both of you, just want to argue. I could care less.

The whole purpose of this thread was to get some additional information from Hitech. It isn't about you two, that's for sure. Now that Skuzzy has been in and visited the thread I know Hitech will at least hear about it. He can either contact me, or not. I will post more as I move forward.

I understand why Fester posted, at least. You (Dolby) pretty much still have a burr under your saddle because I refused to 'give' you the sounds I created. Like the soldiers I have already made, and the aircraft I will be making they are not your property to demand. Even if HTC were to use them in the game (not the sounds, that's decided), which is not a sure thing, they will not be yours. You cannot demand the works of other people. In your case the problem is jealousy. You want something that you cannot make yourself. Fester is trying to reclaim his position as the top contributor to AH content. Well, that ship has sailed. He has lost his edge and it will never be reclaimed. Now he is just another user. Both of you need to slink back to your caves and sleep off your all-nighter.

Uptown, you can always start another thread. Not sure what you want to learn, but there you go.

As to Fester's hate post: When students fail they will hate. Anyone can be a knight of hate these days. There are many, many graduates of Full Sail that have worked on the latest top money makers. Still, it is not my favorite. If I had the freedom to travel I would attend a school in the U.K., because it is actually the best. Here in the U.S. the top school is in CA and supposed to be #1, and yes Full Sail does not even make the top ten. What they do offer, though, is online education. There are other schools that do the same. Every one of the animation schools out there has a site claiming them to be frauds. Nice whine though.

This is partly your fault. You posted this directly to HiTech in General Discussion. I dont know your reasoning however it seems like a "look at me" post. You should have just PMed him if you wanted to keep the arguments and hijacking to a minimum.

Perdue, I don't see any harm here. Especially from rejects like coombz, and Festurd.

What I get out of all of this is how much resistance there is to change, good change, by the very people that want change. Onageristic stupefaction is incurable in the ignorant souls of this board.

Just ask yourself how much good the changes in game play that some of the people here have suggested really made? Game play has gone down hill. Fester himself has abandoned ship. He claims it's because of graphics. It's not because of graphics.

Just like you to get the details exactly right!

I'm curious as to why HTC still haven't implemented any post effects like HDR, bloom or ambient occlusion, all of which can be toggled on and off by the user. Both HDR and bloom are less resource intensive than cube map reflections and would offer a substantial gain in "eye candy". Other than that, the biggest eye sores are most definitely the terrain texture details, the terrain mesh (pyramid shaped hills) and clouds.
