Thanks to those of you posting that you liked the latest blog.

Funny thing is that I didn't even want to write it. I actually started it after the show because people kept asking for my thoughts (even though I was on the stream taking the piss, the whole time).

For some yet-to-be-determined reason, I was just so very upset writing this one. I dunno if it's because I know that all of this could have been avoided had people actually heeded my warnings, stopped giving croberts money, and held him accountable, or what. But there it is.

Guys. The demo was legit in as far as it was a height map procedurally generated on a surface. Also the assets were ported in and the modular environment art was placed in an editor. Everything else was either scripted or had a simple animation set on loop. There was no ai and the lods popping in and out was shocking. That was in a controlled environment with one guy at the helm. Imagine flying your 1km long chariot with a crew of 40 fellow spergs into that planet and meeting fellow cultists in equally as unfeasible chariots . To even render 1 procedural rock while that's happening you would have to get your pc rig from a secret pentagon test facility. It's all horse poo poo and will never as in loving never happen

Additionally it was literally a star wars film

For gently caress sake how the hell can you have a persistent Base in a precedural environment. It's a unique instance .

Sure. Procedurally generate your 100GB planet locally, upload to the cloud server, have it integrate it into the master universe file, continuously update it and send it downstream to anyone who happens to land there......no probs at all.

It didn't go into that sort of specifics because I have no information as to how big that surface area was. If someone has it - and we can verify it - I will surely add it.

It's a temp-ban that expires later today. Here's how it went down

So I login and got this message:


Here's why (below).

Then Marak (in that thread) said that SA was behind a paywall.

So I then copied and pasted the post from SA, with a warning that if I got banned, I was blaming him (Marak).

I got temp banned

I think I may have missed some of the words that they don't allow over there. You're not even allowed to do stuff like f*ck; because they say you are trying to bypass the swear filter, thus breaking the rules.
