Urza Posted February 1, 2002 Report Share Posted February 1, 2002 I was looking at the feature set for XP1 when I noticed something: quote: Decals support for falling snow, rain, blood and objects impacting water while on terrain Now, I might be mistaken, but I recall SC saying blood would not be in the game to avoid an M rating. Has this policy changed, or is this just an oversight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supreme Cmdr Posted February 2, 2002 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2002 There's blood. And there's gore. You can still bleed, but you won't see limbs being chopped off and you won't see gratuitous spurts of blood when you take weapons fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREG MILLER Posted February 2, 2002 Report Share Posted February 2, 2002 What is so wrong with the game being rated a "T" and an add-on being rated an "M"? The only reason "The Sims" have yet to implement more realistic features is because sales are still strong. Although that Heart shaped bed was pushing it a little.

antaren4279 Posted February 5, 2002 Report Share Posted February 5, 2002 Would there be any way of implementing geo-dynamics in the terrain engine, allowing missles and crash landings to create craters on a planet surface? Is this idea way too much work. Do you see this in the XP1 feature set? I did not see anything about texture changing in the x1 faq. Will place specific damage effects be implemented? See above BCM is huge. BCM-x1 is a huge list of features. Hey SC, how many lines of code do you, the flight sim jedi master, and the bco dev crew write on an average work day? The amount of and quality of the work one does is not determined by the lines of code that is written.

xierxior Posted February 5, 2002 Report Share Posted February 5, 2002 geo-mod in bcm, excuse me sir we dont all have a 3ghz comp with 1gig of ram, ever play red faction? it took a couple seconds to geo-mod a (small) area now think of this on a planatary scale sc would have to implent a loading bar so you know when the geo-mod has finished redoing the planatary surface, would probly take longer then your mineing drones filling up, what would be nice is a train system so you could transphere your ground asset to difreant bases..

The missile holes were also a feature in Mechwarrior 3... but yet the area size can't be compared to bcm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they're not deep enough Here we are talking about holes for every missiles that misses it's target, about holes from crashing ships, destroyed tanks, destroyed stuctures and anything it would make it cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course its possible, but its not in my plans atm. I'll make a mental note of it (to create craters where crashes occur etc) however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAY Posted February 6, 2002 Report Share Posted February 6, 2002 Reading way back I noticed you mention no specific card features to be supported. With the introduction of the XP1 package and its processor hungry attributes have you OR are you considering implementing features like Hardware T&L and other speed optimisations that are found on all common Gforce cards in most gamers machines? It would help a great deal especially when the processor doesn’t live up to much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
