Title: Missile trails issue
Post by: Scourge of Ages on April 12, 2010, 02:06:25 am
So I'm running the latest RC, updated .10 VPs and all that good stuff. As far as I can tell, I have the correct options checked in the launcher.

I thought that everything was up and running as good as it could possibly look. Then I watched a little of the "let's suffer/play" video that Lucika is doing, and noticed that his missile trails looked nothing like mine, but much better.

Here's what mine look like, all bitmappy. And the debug log.

Actually yours are normal, I just looked at his videos and his missile trails are grey, so he's the one with a problem, not you.

I actually like the grey tails - they're more realistic in a way. I have them due having the 3.6.10 MediaVPs before they were again updated - given some of the changes made with the "update," I'm quite happy with my current assets.

No. Not really. While modern GPUs have rather generous polygon budgets, updating a model that is only on-screen for a few frames is just stupid.

That being said, updating the models displayed in the loadout screen when the "Use models for weapon selection" feature is on, that could be worthwhile.
Title: Re: Missile trails issue
Post by: Galemp on April 13, 2010, 01:04:56 am
bah, you should be using the pre-rendered interface art anyway. That's why I lobbied to have 3D Ship Selection and 3D Weapon Selection split, so you wouldn't have to look at those awful in-game models.

So you'd rather have high-poly missiles in the breifing room but not in-mission?

how much time do you spend actually looking at the missile model in mission??? i side with The E in that significant detail increases in mission on missiles would have little visual benefit. aside from something like a torpedo or trebuchet they are so small and fast that it quickly becomes pointless because you cant see the detail anyway due to distance or the trail, secondly apart from the missiles i have listed you don't normally have time to watch the missile model because you are in the middle of a dogfight and need to be using that concentration on where the enemy is.

now compared to the ship view in the techroom the missile models look terrible and would benefit from someone making techroom only views
Title: Re: Missile trails issue
Post by: Commander Zane on April 13, 2010, 07:35:48 am
I'm actually quite adept at spotting minute details even in the middle of intense dogfights without detriment to my flying. Besides, it might as well be done since others took the time to even make high-poly missiles in-mission in the first place, and even go as far as making secondaries for the Shivans.
Title: Re: Missile trails issue
Post by: MatthTheGeek on April 13, 2010, 08:08:13 am
It's not really minute detail here, but rather less-than-a-second detail... but yeah. You can believe me when I say higher-poly missiles won't make our FPS drop anyway, it's the man with an Intel Integrated 965 speaking here :)
Title: Re: Missile trails issue
Post by: Commander Zane on April 13, 2010, 08:20:01 am
If that's supposed to be a time joke, then :lol:.

But nonetheless, it is a minute detail, missiles like Tempests, Hornets, and Tornadoes (Which the former two are already high-poly) are very small, minute (Put emphasis on the 'i') is a term for small, perhaps you know that, the lesson is most likely unnecessary.

Plus I'm the type to make screenshots of ships as they're firing missiles, I have an Ares firing a Tornado salvo from a very close view, it's completely ruined by the Retail model of the missiles, it would be sheer awesomeness if they were high-poly. For this reason good looking missiles in-mission are hardly a waste.
Title: Re: Missile trails issue
Post by: Mongoose on April 13, 2010, 01:49:20 pm
I was going to say, don't several missiles already have new in-game models, with the rest eventually in the works?  This post (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=53969.msg1091586#msg1091586) seems to make the entire argument moot. :p

The Tempest has a high-poly model in-mission, not sure why FX is red for it.

Probably because that post hasn't been updated for a while.

If I could, I'd take a hornet and reskin it green and yellow to sub in for the tornado.

But I'm illiterate, so I can't :(

It looks like the HTL missiles first started seeing use five years ago, I'm guessing from what I've seen looking around normal maps on FreeSpace are about five, six years old as well, and the Ursa, which was HTLed five years ago as well, still does not have normal maps.

Reskinning the Hornet would probably be a decent place holder for the time being...shouldn't be too difficult, I'll give it a try but I'm not expecting the real deal for some time still, it's interesting how some of the little things remain half-finished or untouched after so many years.

Edit: Actually...the only real difference is the shape of the missiles themselves (Fin number and bulk on the aft) the textures are rather the same...
On the tech .ani anyway.
