[LeChuckle]

Are you guys working on/ thinking of doing the same for british forces geometries/kits? - 2nd ipod post

yeah. i mean, who cares about MEC??

[Bellator]

Ha! So the camelbak holds water. Reminds me of Fremen.

Anyway, these are awesome improvements.

i wish the BF2 engine could render the lighting and shadows of each piece of equipment sticking on the solider, like those polished renders in the OP..

but sure looks impressive!

ewwwwww, you are one of those who like the specular bloom and blur?!

oh dear, and I thought you were one of the good guys

Awesome new kits,the gear,and everything on the soldiers look great,attention paid to details.Faces could maybe be a little different,but they're good.And not sure on the ones with the non-combat eyewear on,lol..But other than that,looks really sweet.

[Z-trooper]

not talking about the bloom or blur

i'm talking about the shadows of the let's say holsters that should project little shadows on the soldiers body..

but in the BF2 engine those shadows (iirc there are some for kit geos) have a resolution of lego blocks, that are 5x enlarged


EDIT: i know this is somewhat nitpicking, but stuff like that makes a huge difference..

Ahhh yea. Alright, my bad

What you are talking about is ambient occlusion (self shadowing of models). Theoretically it is very possible, it would just be very impractical in the system we use.
This would essentially require unique textures for each possible kit combination when the engine can't do it dynamically, such as Sandbox2.

[ReadMenace]

yeah, and in the renders it's probably raytraced, so it's a killer lighting effect anyways

all i wanted to convey is that your pretty models won't shine in their fullest glory in the BF2 engine.

Megan Fox is a dude.

you better be joking fella.

1) it has been stated the asian character is just being used to demo the kits

2) that could be construed as a racist remark.

If you a joking, you must give some indication, sarcasm does not transmit well over the internet.
