Title: Someone rendered the Age of Aquarius intro!
Post by: General Battuta on August 07, 2010, 09:19:47 pm

It was quite a pleasant surprise when we stumbled onto this on YouTube.

We should steal this and use it to replace the old semi-crappy FS2 intro. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgAgWe9ZWig)

Our game engine almost looks better than the render!

Then I realized that it had way better bloom, and far far far better lighting.

And lots of anti-aliasing.

Can we use this as a custom intro for AoA, please?

I...actually think the game looks much better than that intro cause I didn't see normal maps :nervous:
The ships looked so...low-poly and underdetailed...strange yeah...

The only thing good about it was the text. Needs the voice-acting imported too!

I'm not sure what the point of using this for the intro would be when you'll see the real thing again in the mission
