OMG LENSE FLARE! :D

Glad for this bit of news. Good timing as well, summer is only what, 6 weeks from being into the Sept/fall season now, when a lot of guys will be back to gaming and outdoors less. Should be a good new fall gaming season here, I'm sure there is a lot of guys waiting in the wings, to come out of that woodwork and check out what's new. I know from a couple squad boards and the "board that must not be named", I've seen an increasing number of posts of x-players saying they are waiting for the new beta to come back.
It's hard to get a sense of what it'll look like from a lower rez screen capture, but the past videos and new artwork on the home page show a vast improvement, as well as the effects in this new pic.
-
Now that looks awesome!
-
No more Super Nova :aok
-
Very nice. I hope the lens flare effect is only from external views and not from inside the cockpit. Last time I checked, my eyes don't do that. ;)

An eclipse? Nice..... :cheers:

OMG LENSE FLARE! :D
thats not lense flare thats Nibiru :noid

Hmmm... I adjusted the colors in the image HT posted and it appears below. Look carefully at and around the airplane. Please commence wild-eyed speculative discussion now... :)

Yeah, I saw the IAS and ALT readout in the upper-left. Didn't notice the pitch indicator though. Probably part of HT's debug console. Can't believe that would be part of the new update to make it easier to fly in 3rd-person view.

I too hope we NEVER SEE THAT IN GAME!

I think the pitch indicator will be an optional ON/OFF setting like stall limiter.
Obviously external mode is disabled in the MA and it would be a helpful tool for newer pilots (or anyone who can't read an instrument) to appreciate whether they are climbing/diving.
One thing I noticed in HT's pic was the cloud colour, do clouds reflect colour/light in the current version?? :headscratch:
-
Please make the lens flare switchable. It is a useless effect IMO.

Hardcore gamers just don't appreciate the ethereal beauty of a long walk on a beach at sunset.
Many of these guys are going to turn off everything they can to gain a combat advantage. Then complain in the forums about how bad the game looks in their personalized game advantage modified mode. And blame it all on Hitech.
-
nice work.... :aok

Looks good! :aok

Currently, cloud color is simply an arena color setting and has nothing to do with sky or light color.
-
That's purdy,
Nice job!

Great stuff Hitech glad to see it is coming along nicely! Can't wait for the release! It will definitely attract new players and get people excited. Keep it up!
-
looks great. :cheers: :cheers:
Question (maybe already answered somewhere): To get the new effects within the game are we going to have to (or perhaps encouraged) carry out an upgrade on our current vid cards?

Good chance of that. Looks like I will need a whole new computer.

One of the big changes I remember hearing about, is if your GPU is so old it does not support Shader2.0 functions. HTC ran a query and a very small set of systems fall into that category. Other aspects of the new engine, such as terrain mesh detail and the like, might cause some rigs to puke due to lack of resources.
It's possible you may need to upgrade some aspects of your rig, but I'd hold off until release, or the new minimum specs are published.

Relating to the speed displayed in the top left hand corner,I would love if we had speed in kph.😭been flying for 6 years using metric and its been a killer using mph,feet I can deal with but mph is a really wierd for me. I wouldn't think it would be 2 hard to have speed in kph and maybe meters for alt,but tat would just be icing on the cake 😊

AH3 will make better use of your videocard's power, so wait till the game is released to buy anything, you might be surprised in a good way
-
can our pilot, like, have sunglasses? Because that sun is really bright, and staring at that bright sun on the screen could really, like, damage a person's eyes. I mean, seriously.

I'm planning on taking a run at it when the new update comes out to see if I can 'fly' it w/o getting headaches and nausea again.

Sunrise at 5:00 PM? .....
Just messin', it looks outstanding. Thx for the teaser.

I was wondering who would notice that

Well, it's obvious you're testing the UTC time setting ( to minimize confusion with daylight savings time we colonists insist on following. ) This would be a screenshot from the Alofi Island map they must be working on. ( UTC - 11 )
