Mediolanum Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 Tesselation seems to be interesting, but i'd prefer a good overhaul and implementation of parallax mapping first. From the previews I didn't notice POM. It would be a really good improvement in terms of graphical realism and I don't really get why they did not implement it! I'll do some tests by myself as soon as I can.

Zachcuden Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 Yes, even if a dx11 overhaul does come out I'm sure it would take quite some time unfortunately. But I for one would really really like to see it. Some out the shader mods and texture packs for New Vegas already turned it into a whole nother' game on my pc. Looks great, except for the bushes and trees. But yeah, I want to make full use of my computer.

It's going to cost me 2,000 dollars with everything monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc. So, wish to get as much out of the game as possible on that system. Probably could run medium/high with this computer I have here.
Povuholo Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 It won't use DX10 or DX11 features, which is quite sad. But since that functionality is there, I'd say probably 1-3 months before there's a huge graphical overhaul that adds tessellation and many other graphic wonders. True, but not sure what the folder is all about then. http://s7.postimage.org/dhu19vy8p/Capture.jpgOfftopic:Could you make a screenshot of the data-folder? :) You know you can preload it yourself, if you have it on Steam. Not sure if you do. http://s9.postimage.org/nt7wn93od/Capture2.jpgInteresting to see that the voice bsa file is 1.3 GB while the Oblivion ones were 1.66 GB together, and Fallout 3's 1.72 GB. Looks like they managed to compress it better, as I doubt we'll have less voice acting. Also there's an update.esp (or esm, can't see) , which I assume is what they'll be using for those quick updates they promised. Better than having to download the whole 240 MB Skyrim.esm for every patch! :P

I'll do some tests by myself as soon as I can.Problem is, POM will always be glitchy, and it'll have a much larger impact on performance than tessellation (unless you make almost everything tessellated, a la Crysis 2 or Metro 2033... What a waste of performance -_-)
Hionimi Posted November 10, 2011 Posted November 10, 2011 I hope they at least use Soft Particles from DirectX 10, saw a lot of dust and wind particles in the video, would be nice if those particles blend a little.
Hionimi Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 Played it, and it does indeed seem they use Soft Particles! Woot! \o/
