Title: Ok partial recant
Post by: DREDIOCK on April 14, 2007, 12:02:59 AM

Updated drivers. bumped up the detail about

Terrain looks alot better then it did before.

So I would like to formally apologise to HTC for my "atrocious" statement.

But...

It still lacks considerably.

Personally I think its the shadowing
It seems to b missing. as though the sun were shining from all angles

Missing is the subtle shadows,contrasts and shades that make a terrain, a terrain  with depth and not just as one person put it "A carpet of green"

I installed the update, started an account and flew H2H with a mouse (JS is dead)  and I am impressed with the new terrain, of course I have a new computer and vid card....so Im headed out to buy a new JS this weekend.

An Apology with a caveat?   Classless, utterly classless.

I apologised for calling it atrocious.
Its not. Thus my apology

But its not where it should be either
therefore I cant apologise and say it looks GREAT.
It doesnt

That is why I call it a "Partial recant"

I'm pretty sure I've seen someone with your handle flying around.
