SM2 support being removed next UDK build

Ever saw movies at 120FPS? It's simply a case of being spoiled with high framerates you can't stand any lower, whereas 24-30FPS is perfectly acceptable for most users who don't have a octocore PC with the latest Nvidia graphics card. Anything lower than that will appear sluggish.

Movies don't have graphic engine. Games works different on another Frames Per Second rate ;) For example CoD4  125+FPS = longer and higher jump.

That's because the engine is fucked up.

That's called bad programming. My point is: Ever had the feeling movies were sluggish/lagging? NO! 24FPS is a perfectly normal framerate. It has nothing to do whether or not it's a graphics engine, or do you honestly believe Shrek 2 (which is a movie rendered by a graphics engine, duh) HAS to be played at 120FPS for best experience?

If it has double-vision for 3D effect, yes :P Agreed about bad programming. FPS shouldnt affect anything gameplay-wise as long as it is 24fps or better.

[Gawain]

there's hell of a difference between 24fps and 60fps, especially in interactive use.

[MulleDK19]

It's annoying watching movies... They're so fucking laggy.

Anything below 60 is just extremely laggy and annoying to me.



Argh, stupid TVs running 25-30 fps, fucking sucks, I can almost count all the frames... So fucking slow! >:(

Yea! Time to put a new graphics card in my TV!

i lol'd.

Anyway, we got some badass programmers, so I'd think they'd do their best to figure out any way to get the minimum requirements as low as they can. Right guys?

As said, I want to be able to play at a absolute minimum of 24FPS with the best experience (light/shadow wise), without having to upgrade either my laptop or my PC.

[Gawain]

i still can't decide where to go with my system.
atm all i got is a 17" macbook pro 2009 model and some hifi stuff.
it does 95% of what i need beautifully, but sometimes i'll want to play some windows-only games with some raw hardware gfx power on a fucking large screen, use maya with furryball etc.

any suggestions?

[LennardF1989]

Dude, it's a Mac!

Get a windows PC.

I would kill for one right now, need to debug a payed website I made which seems to be borked big-time on a Mac/Safari combination.

[Farley4Fan]

You don't need to do anything with a mac.  They magically upgrade.  With magic.

[Gawain]

magic up your ass ;D
