Well, you were a little... odd.
I mean, Coming on a forum that's about a OPEN-SOURCE game to talk about shrimps, assuming everyone's American.
Also, Giving away your age and address freely on-line... That's not safe, dude.


But, Like legendman's said, 'your welcome'.

Feature Requests / Re: UGV Equipment?

yeah, hertz (mind if I call you that?), those weapons do sound pretty sweet.
can you picture a ugv sized grenade launcher firing flechettes? Man, I'd hate to be on the wrong end of THAT!   



also, since aircraft have them, would the UGV's have interchangeable components like targeting computers?

why not particle weaponry? I mean, they have a particle weapon for aircraft, why not UGVs?

and whats wrong with plasma? eh?

Feature Requests / UGV Equipment?

« on: May 16, 2010, 10:34:52 am »

I'm just wondering, but how are UGV's gonna be equipped?
I'm hoping for a system just like the aircraft equipment screen.

Also, while I'm on the topic of UGV's, what's the weaponry gonna be like?
I'v got a few ideas, but it's all silly stuff like auto-lasers turrets, heavy plasma-cannons and a beefed up multi-rocket-pods. not to mention particle beam based weaponry

indeed. but it is worth noting that 2.3 is MASSIVELY better than 2.2, even if it is still unstable.

Discussion / Re: Grafikeinstellungen Noob Hilfe - Welche Einstellungen?

« on: May 12, 2010, 08:54:00 pm »

Graphic setting options are numerous it in this game and I confess that I know do not have what the Best quality and best performance ensure that.

Therefore, please can someone briefly explain what settings the quality and what the performance / power increase?

I list all settings to:


Resolution: Actually, clearly, the higher the better quality and less performance.
texture resolution: Also easy to understand the configuration options are self explanatory.
lightmap Block size: from small to large, but which setting provides the best quality?
Anisotropic Filtering: clear, more but better Qualiät.
fullscreen: costs a little performance.
texture compression?
Show FPS: no impact.
Texturdetailierungsgrad?
Isometric: I never quite understood how the effect that, and if only in the Geoscape.
GLSL Shadd?
real-time lighting costs: power and lights textures.
Weather effects cost: performance.
Vertex Buffer?
multi-sampling buffer?
swap interval:?

Gamma No impact.
Contrast: No impact.
Brightness: No impact.
lightmap size: what is it?

image stretch to 4:3 ratio: No impact?
Enable post-processing shader effects: Cool effects, the performance cost.

EDIT:

GLSL shaders leads me to the earth is transparent.

Hmm... VaeliusNoctu, Bearing in mind the limitations of Google translate's ability to translate between German and English, I can just about gather that you are either asking for or are providing a detailed explanation of each of the graphical settings and their effects in-game, am I right?

Right, sorry.  

Allow me to correct my self...

"2.3, which is currently in open development and is available for download, is the (unofficial) latest version. your not up2date"

that better?

Tactics / Re: Doing it wrong?

« on: May 05, 2010, 09:03:24 am »

2.3 is the lastest verson, so yeah, your not up2date.

in 2.2, the game ends at some point, mainly because you've won the game.
