It does look nice. Is there a place to download it?

Metal sonic, and all the textures will be reworked a bit,

I think i remember seeing the second Thread's time twisted game but cant really remember it.
to bad there aren't any screens left, to help remember.

I'll find the demo and post it up if you like?

That would be awesome, I want to see what you guys are talking about.

Do not know if this is the right Youtube video or not, but the SRB2 Palmtree Panic Zone was quite nice.

Hey that is pretty cool !
i'd also like to try it out !

I can give you the WAD file if you'd like. It requires the SRB2 release just 2.0 IIRC.

Realtime Grass running in C4.
I'll be doing multiple grass variations using multiple techniques.
This is just the first proof of concept using a custom shader I made.

Need member input.. how does it look to you?
What needs to be done to fix the grass if anything?
Should I shoot for a more realistic grass ( individual blades ect)
instead of a surrealistic incantation of the grass (pictured below)?

( the reference used to model)


(Lots of tweaking needs to be done yet)

Looks great! definately looking forward this!

Best of Luck!

Thanks wolf,
Still Needs alot of polishing.

P.S.
as i speak with you on Skype I'm typing this,

Look its Mini-Mii!!

That is great! One small thing, though. When you make the grass higher-resolution, it makes it sort of look blocky.

Andrew, you must tell me how you did that. It looks like you modeled in those pixels and offset the depth.. did you really do that much work? I love it.

It's amazing how close you are getting to the style.

Looking very nice, on par with SaniK 4 even.

Hey thanks,,But i dont think its on par quite yet,
Just wait till you see what it looks like when the real textures are added!

LIAR!! It is on par with Sanik 4! You're just being modest!

I wouldve just used a bump map and animated texture. Nice work!

Hey Yeah! I tried that at first, works well, although a bit limiting.
still have alot more combinations to try out before the proper look is achieved.
Projecting them from a light source opens up possibilities such as shadow casting interruption.
For example if sonic runs around under the water his shadow interrupts the caustics a bit.

Its not easy faking Caustics for realtime use in games.

Our aim for caustics are a bit more dynamic than the simple video posted above.
