Best quote ever.

http://www.nvidia.com, i'm preety sure they use a comman download for all card drivers.

hmm. interesting...

alphja is currently used for shininess, are there any plans for a new (many channel) texture format, even for the far future of the project?

1: download the version SJ linked to and put in your spring dir
2: download the the other files and put them in spring/shaders
3: download my stuff and drop it in spring, the directories should be setup in the archive.

Yeah, i did realise that, but didnt pay any attention to it until too late when i'd already spent alot of money on kbots.

that's waht automated probes are for...

ah, cool

oh, it would be nice to have a hotkey to switch between "build" and "orders", also, always be in orders for units that cant build stuff.

minimaps arent correctly proportioned (ex, shoretoshore) and if possible, i'd like the old shift+backspace (same as shift+j) shortcut back.

I've made alphas for about 1/4 of all the textures, i'l keep you guys posted... Would anyone happen to know what texture is used for the "white sphere" on core fusions? (or were they fissions...) and more importantly, what texture is generaly used for a) windows on vehicles, cockpits on pl...

Arghh! this game is insane!!!

World Machine is very good for heightmap generation/modification, the only problem is that you haev to pay to do anything over 512x512

do i have to do anything special to get enviromental reflections? As far as i can see i only have the specularity now, and i'm not even usre it's using the alpha texture, i can see water reflections. oops! acidentaly put textures in root/tatex instead of root/unittextures/tatex edit2: best feature e...

okay, that one works!

The file you uploaded cant find a "DevIL.dll" Edit: I found it. Now i get a runtime error for abnormal program termination during loading, probably at the point when loading is supposed to finish. Hmm, on castles it gives the standard "windows encountered an error and needs to close&q...

run spring.exe, say "no" to do yu want to be a server, then type in the name of the demo (whole filename, not sure if you need the path (relative))

Getting units to avoid ares where large craters and cliffs have formed isn't too hard at all, doing the inverse is probably quite difficult though...

Cnetral build AI is very nice if you know how to use it, but it doesnt work online unless you are the host

and also, what's the best way to replace textures? just ut the new ones in TAspring/tatex?

And how many bits per pixel should these be?

Also, where can i get this build? it's hard to judge hw shiny things will be otherwise..

also, what's with the diferent darkness versions of lots of textures?
