High polycount models

Just to clue everyone who is not following the SCP they are getting close to completing the merge of Direct X 8. This will aloow a great deal of new features graphics wise in freespace 2 such as high polycounts and maybe a Vorlon planet killer. And as mentioned before fully funtional vorlon cookies what ever the heck they are.

i want vorlon milk too

WEBSITE NOW UP AND RUNNING!!!!!

DX8 alone won't allow anything. The game actually runs little slower with DX8. But DX8 is the base for new features, such as Hardware Transformations and Lightning.

The limitations of Vorlon planetkiller are subobjects if I remember correctly, and that is not depending on DX.

Bleh, I can hear IP running this way to correct me with a hammer.

oh really? hmm and sub objects are difficult to stably increase the limits ofright? same with the subsystems?

DX8 does not equal instant improvement...I'd still rather us focus on creating models with virtually the same requirements that we have no and instead focusing the extra FPS gained on special effects. I think our ships look quite good, even low poly. Bump mapping and faster frame rates would be worth it.

you don't know??

it's SO simple edwin.. basically

I = Ia ka + Ii (kd(L . N) + ks(R . V) ^n)

Clear?

I'm referring to glossy shiny highlights on sides of ships, Edwin.
