Someone was nostalgic for XP.

New Planet Tech is KILLER of Exploration (all terrain is tiling/repeating/not procedural/random)

it is simply a very quick demonstration of a very simple procedural texture used at different frequencies on three separate spheres it was not meant to be something amazing
I didn't really understand, but I'll nod my head for a non committal agreement, so I don't look like stupid, but can still say I didn't agree in case someone proved that statement wrong.
nod
Ah, see it looked like an example of the LODs being used and why it's bad when it 's instantaneously and jarringly popping between each one.
Screenshots please!
yeah it failed to add my text (oops) but it was a really basic five mins set up kind of render
I also deeply suspect a form of the 3d package I am using here is what FDEV have been using as part of their generation system, this program is ancient
CIG have talked about SC having VR since practically the start.
There was a dev post this year about them still planning on adding VR at some point.
Right after they enter beta.
At which point VR won't be a thing anymore, because we'll all be hooked directly into the Matrix.
I made a topic recently with some kerbal planet. I think you saw it. Anyway.
I had to remove that one from it because it was way too pretty:
That's from kerbal
Anyway, just comparing those :
Dav's hope (settlement moved, place is the same otherwise, horizon vs odyssey)
Kerbal
Not only the planet itself is better, but the skybox to.
Never thought I'd say that someday.
I haven't played kerbal since a while, I just found pictures on the net

It's a very good game, but it's very much a "NASA simulator". Not a space sim at all.I own KSP but have never played it. Perhaps I will, after my honeymoon with X4 is over
It's very well done for that though.
Get your calculator and your notebook outI own KSP but have never played it. Perhaps I will, after my honeymoon with X4 is over
It's really in depth simulation from the seat of the rocket designer.
I still miss a few Kerbals in the depth of Kerbal space
Memories of using Bryce and Vue decades ago to generate landscapes for my mods for Infinity Engine games...
yes indeed, I love Bryce for playing with and it can be spectacular, but serious game companies should not be using stock poser figures and bryce as part of their game design
and so happy you noticed it was Bryce
Oh, if you had spent as long as I have waiting for something to render in that, on a potato system from the mid-90s.....
I’ve been taking another look at SC lately. My play time is limited and ED has pretty much been the only game I’ve been playing, but lately I’ve been giving some serious consideration to moving over. SC seems to be getting better and better with every patch, and ED worse and worse.
