Excuse me for resurrecting an old thread but I just thought it was deemed appropriate , so my question would be  are you guys taking advantage of the March release of UDK allowing to utilize  DX 11 ?

Not for Lakehouse, mostly because Zedblade's graphics card can't handle it. Maybe in some later levels. We'll see about Asylum.

One picture is the start of... uh... we'll see ;)

I think this game needs to be a bit more friendly to the "Crappy PC/Laptops" community, but I would like to know as well.

P.S: Wouldn't that mean you have to change everything? Like the water effect?

People need just a lot of graphic settings like in UT2k4.
You should be able to adjust everything from useless blurs to decals and textures quality.(Post processing always high? or it doesn't matter for visions quality anymore?)
Graphics fanatics should be happy then and people with low specs or minimalism graphics fanatics :D

I hope Devs will not make such a mistake like in CT versus two graphics settings +  resoultion.

There are games on UE3 which works good even with older PCs ;) Ofcourse we are not talking about people who have Celeron 1.7ghz S478 512mb ram and 5500fx :D

I'd go for WoW style, you can remove literally everything and even PCs from 2000 can run it and raid with 20 fps, which is more than enough to play. Same for Starcraft 2 and Diablo, fucking hell come to think of Blizzard makes such great games when it comes to options :/

Project Stealth will never be able to run on anything less than XP.

Windows 2000 and below does not have DirectX 9+.

[DreadStunLock]

That's fine, just have something like.


Texture Quality

Projectiles

Effects

Resolution

Fog

The more the better, just have loads of options to choose, detail, pixels as many resolutions as possible, U

Something like Ultra-low spec selection or whatever.


+ I am sure that WoW has DX10/11.....Hmmm need to re-check.

[knooger]

No Fog because it will be unfair if on any map will be fog and u will just delete it or make long distance visibility.
PS maps will be not that huge so we dont need adjust fog.. if any will be on maps.

[DreadStunLock]

Yeah, I kind of gone too far on that one, but stuff like Texture quality, particles, special effects, view distance etc.

Another question on my mind is  , when are we going to see the surfacing of the live broadcast recorded  video of lakehouse ?

[frvge]

I did not find time to re-record it. It's still on my HDD tho, totalling over 70GB of raw footage.

[Farley4Fan]

Just upload the 70 gigs then

totally serious

[DreadStunLock]

70GB on a website, I wonder how will it affect the speed of browsing it xD

[zglina]

upload video in parts

[DreadStunLock]

Now that will be just boring, same way it's boring to watch videos on YouTube in parts like real films.

[knooger]

No one of you guys heard about video compression?
