Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.
gracias pals. it is a bit strange.. have to try flyby just to make sure I'm moving.
Insane view distances like this require a bunch of tweaks. To start with, the heightmap is very small (well.. half the size of a small map) and then scaled up a lot. Because of the way the game tiles the heightmap, onscreen is probably an entire large map still. The lodDistance (which is usually hard to push past 5000) is at 250,000! just to hold the terrain in one piece without freaking out All because of the super scaling at ground level.
I want to try some formation skydiving later.. heheh
defo makes for an interesting dogfight map
GD... having a bit of fun with these concepts is my limit these days. If I had to make a full IS82 map it would take months and years.. just hard to find that kinda time..
