  1. I think we are getting the decent water back in LE3 aren't we? I miss the erosion tools for terrain also! If I ever try and make a terrain now, it looks all smooth and rubbish! I always liked the look of STRANDED in 2.31... It reminds me of "battlefield: bad company 2" how everything seems saturated, and it looks great.

  2. Moderators belong more on community forums, whereas this, no matter how you look at it, is a company forum, although we do have a community here too.

     

    It boils down to what would the repercussions be if Josh gave moderation powers to someone, and he later finds out that this person can't be trusted with them? Anything bad this moderator does in the mean time reflects badly on the whole company...

     

    That's true. Even if just one person was appointed the job of moderator. After all, a spam thread that ends up being missed also looks bad for the company. :)

  3. The best bit is that they take a long time to die - they go through bouts of wetting themselves as they need the toilet and they are starving too and lonely and they want to sleep but have no bed. Sometimes I put a door back on and send my Sim in to beat them up and treat them really badly before leaving them again in their pitch black cell (which is actually a glorified coffin).

     

    I sometimes set up a mini dungeon system whereby I have multiple cells so that I can keep multiple Sims locked up until they die.

     

    Babies and toddlers don't die though - you can't blow them up, burn them or drown them - I tried every which way for a few days.

     

    Sounds like the movie "Hostel". :)

  4. I find animation in blender to be quite easy. If the skeleton is already set up when you import it, It would be easy to edit the animations. :D I could make a video tutorial on basic animation with bones in blender if you like. I may not be able to get this done until tomorrow though.

  5. I wish XP had the start menu search feature like windows vista and 7 do. I remember going back to windows XP once and found it annoying not having that quick search function. If they added that in, I would go back to windows XP.

  6. Are Sony that picky? Didn't Naughty Alien have a screenshot of a modified LE working on the PS3 like 9 months back (as in, before the rollback)?Anyone else remember it?

    Yeah I remember something like that, Although I thought that was using another engine? I may be wrong though.

  7. If the release date is 21 December 2012 then we all know what world catastrophic event the Maya people was predicting ;)

     

    lol! Maybe apple will release a new version of their OS too, with the tagline "choose your fate..." Harold Camping will be wrong once again! Technology will end this world, not God!

  8. I think moderators should be brought back. It only appears we have one. which is the account called "admin". I see lots of things that could be moved, or even deleted as someone requests it, yet I can't do anything about it. ;) I also agree with pixel on the 3rd party section of the site. Companies like Krankzinnig's and arteria3d have to post inside the off topic or leadwerks related forums. I think off topic should be left for just random conversation, and not for posting anything unrelated to leadwerks engine(eg. model packs) . Even a section of the forum for companies would be good. Then the company has a real good chance of getting noticed.

  9. This post isn't of much help but just noticed this technique while playing Test Drive Unlimited 2. They have a less detailed world rendered in the mirrors. Would this be done by decreasing the LOD distance? Anyhow, it's a pretty cool way to go around things, as you don't tend to notice much of a difference at a quick glance, yet it will up performance by a lot. An image showing what I mean:
