Phoenix Engine 8-20-05 Dynamic Sky

Post by David » Sat Aug 20, 2005 10:29 pm

I added dynamic clear sky effects; the sun, moon, and stars all move realistically throughout the day. Clouds are coming soon 8)

The first one will look really good with some clouds added, I see night scenes are going to kick ass :D
Are the star formations going to be the same as seen from earth?

Good sky effects. Turner looks more like a animal then a humen in this version of lugaru.

Oh my dear lord David. If i was of a different gender (perhaps female) i would have broken down in tears of joy from seeing those pictures. You are going at an amazingly fast speed and every screenshot never ceases to amaze me.

David, marry me? (crap... where are gay weddings allowed? Lol, no, i have a girlfriend)

Yeah, you do, even in the commercial, :p...it's just a big red sky with black dots everywhere...but David's shaders give colors of red, orange, purple, etc to Turner where as Doom 3's give you white, black and red (alarms) also, David's light is real, it shows you how it would look in real life whereas Doom 3's are cylinders/cones of light thus in reality, giving David power over ID...then you add the Extra credt, an editor... :P
