    Suggestion thoughts now that you've seen the engine.

    I guess it is possible to create a believable 3D wasteland environment with all the shaders/parallax mapping/etc. The real problem is the art, not the technology.... Bethesda needs to refrain from overdoing the effects and putting in nice vivid colours and shiny rocks. We are looking for a...

    Afterfall Trailer

    The video looks really good and the music fits perfectly. I hope everything works out fine for the project. One flaw I noticed were the power lines that bend at 'sharp' angles (you know what I mean). I know it's hard to overcome, but it just looks weird. I'm looking forward to more footage.

    The Oblivion Engine, can it be tweaked to Van Buren style?

    I don't think the problem lies in technical limitations - if it was true every console would ship with a mouse... It's the mentality - console games must be easy to control, there's no space for nested menus, multiple options etc. Have you seen ONE console game with user interface as...

    Pulserifle (UPDATE 06.05.12, with some textures)

    I don't know why, but for now I like the untextured version better. The model is just awesome, because it's so carefully crafted and the texture seems generic and lacks detail. It's also pretty dark and you loose all those bolts/screws/etc, that are a very nice touch. I hope you are working on...

    Michael McCarthy's Isometric Turn-Based Action-RPG

    Isn't it that in space your main concern is that it's extremely hot in the sun and extremely cold in the shadow? So that if your temp-controller fails while you're in the shadow of a planet/moon/space station you're going to freeze and if sun is shining on you, you'll be half frozen...

    The one Vault.

    Sounds interesting, awaiting further episodes I vote for A

    Fallout 3 Location

    I just don't think it would justify all the effort. Even nowadays it's not easy to maintain a profitable railroad. In the wasteland people have different priorities - they don't need to have massive amounts of cargo transported quickly. You mention NCR taking control of other towns - I assume...

    Fallout 3 Location

    Why would anyone want to run a railroad company in the wasteland? There aren't many people traveling from place to place - the only ones would probably be merchants and they're obviously better off using caravans. Slower but much cheaper. A train needs to be carrying lots of load to be...

    Fallout 3 mentioned by Pete Hines

    This is a sad thought, but I think we all try to believe that Fallout will be the way we want it to be (turn based, isometric, true to the spirit of the original games etc), although everything convinces us otherwise. They're doing what they do 'best', it's going to appear on consoles as...

    Best computer setup Evar.

    Most, not to say all 17 and 19 inch LCDs have 1280x1024 as their native resolution and their not that costly in comparison to a good CRT. I admit that models featuring higher resolutions are expensive as hell anf tend to be 16:9. Sure you won't get a quality LCD for $5, but you won't get a...

    Internet memory

    That's right so when you look for software like that check trusted sites like tucows and always remember to have your firewall on ;)

    Internet memory

    You can try using some parental control/ spying software. Using a keylogging trojan horse might be dangerous. I don't know if there is any freeware that does what you need, but you might want to check out a trial of NetSpy, SpyEX or something. A keyboard logger is a program that saves...

    Best computer setup Evar.

    From my experience dead pixels aren't such a big issue after all. A single pixel is so small that you really have to examine the screen closely with a pure white/black/red/green/blue image to actually notice it. Rememer that the Sony Trinitron crt monitors had two lines running across the...
