Hi! Could someone please try my new (tech)Demo : Voyage. It's the first thing created with new engine Unity. Demo is basicly just camera chasing particle system over some terrain / forrest. It should work on win2k/XP system but IT DOESN'T WORK ON WIN 98(SE) AND WIN ME. It runs with about 35FPS on my Duron&TNT2 so it should fly on GeForce.. Demo: http://www2.arnes.si/~uteran/Unity-Voyage.zip ScreenShot : http://www2.arnes.si/~uteran/VoyageSS.jpg Some Features : -Random generated trees(with some stupid LOD) -Correct terrain collision detection -Real-Time terrain morphing -Geo-mipmapping for CLOD -QuadTree with frustum culling -Heightmap generation using varius methods(sinus hills, fault line,...) -Config files for just about everything -Lensflare FX -Particle System -and much much more... Keys : Esc - Exit Tab - FPS&Stats off/on A - Animation/Free walk S - ScreenShot G - Ground under particle system starts "growing" H - Add hill under particle system (tech) W - Wireframe B - Bouding Boxes N - Normals mouse wheel up/dpwn - change FOV and some more... There are more worlds than the one that you hold in your hand... Edited by - _DarkWIng_ on January 7, 2002 3:34:27 AM

Not bad!

Crashed on startup in WinXP with 256 MB, GeForce2MX, Athlon 1.2.

However, it ran fine when i changed the executable to Win2000 compatibility mode. Got around 32 FPS.

Your demo worked fine on my system, which is a AMD Athlon 1GHz/Win2K and Geforce 2 MX graphics card.

The average FPS seemed to vary greatly from 32ish up to around 60. I found one problem with the lens flare. I added a few hills. (Well, a great line of them actually. I noticed that the sun and lens flare are still visible, even if they are supposed to be behind a hill

Demo worked fine with my system (WinXP no compatibility mode used (all HotFixes installed) & ASUS v7700 GeForce2GTS 64Mb o/c to 235Core/400Mem) FPS was most of the time over 45Fps and went to 55 sometimes (windowed mode, I didn''t test fullscreen -- I hate fullscreen) (and I''m in AGP 1x due to my K7M and the famous Irongate bug in 2x mode... *URRG*)

The demo was nice, smooth and nerver too fast nor to slow... I loved the lens flare. But you need more/better textures

On the down side, there is a lot of overdraw ( the sky & the land ). You should try making a octree/bsp system and use it with frustrum culling (with compiled vertex arrays -- I''m trying to do that now...)

Well overall it was a good demo, I say you stil have some work to do if you want to make the next Quake
