You're turning the knife in the wound.... and with a little salt added...

I hope not.

In any case, it's rather odd that I almost always see another player's craft canted at an angle after planetfall. Last night, both Remo's FC and Gordon's CC looked to me (and I emphasize, "looked") to be sticking out of the ground after landing. Mine, on the other hand, looked just fine to them.

Well... I can assume you're better at parking...

I know whats causing it. It is packet delay. Your craft is handled local to you (client side), so it will look fine. To others - if they don't get enough packets - then the last packet they get will be the point where your ship is pitched up (thats an AP problem I need to fix) but they don't get frequent updates up the point where your craft has leveled out. This packet delay issues (which is what those queue error messages are) are the cause of various anomalies when on the planet (because there is a lot more stuff to send and thus more packets) and its the current priority item being investigated.

Thank you, sir. Didn't intend to post a Tech issue here ... it just kinda' metamorphed into one.

No biggie. I found it necessary to explain what was going on.

I like 'Pretty Lights' with the trees in the suburban-looking foreground.

Dude, what city is that? That's an awesome view, and it looks way bigger than all the cities I have seen thus far!

His photos are from the new patch that the Beta Team just received. You are looking at a developer that takes pride in his work, considering the price point for this game and the rushed release. He is not only fixing bugs but he is adding content, that's rare these days.


Here is a photo showing just how large these cities are. City View

I did jump and did exactly what Remo said, it was great!

LMAO!!!!

brb, I bet I can top those city views.....

[mentis938]

Sweet! I didn't realize that was the new patch at work there. That's really fantastic looking. Thanks so much for that SC, and I can't wait to see your shots! (not to mention how much I am looking forward to this patch!!!)

[Supreme Cmdr]

OK, here are 29 shots taken from one of the new scenarios (IA0119) in the upcoming patch. This scenario is pretty intense because its dark, its stormy, there are marines everywhere. Not to mention two bunkers in the cities and a bunch of patrolling APCs just spitting out hostiles.

Its pretty intense to say the least.

Will take some daylight shots tomorrow when I have time.

[mentis938]

Hey I checked out the gallery on gamescreenshots.com and I noticed the trees looked different. Is that in the new patch too?!? Seems to me that it is, and it looks sweet!

[Supreme Cmdr]

Yeah, I licensed natFX for use in UCE2E but then I figured that I'd use them in UC as well.
