Got planar reflections and sub surface refraction updates, the ocean looks killer; will it make it into v0.12ptd dpends if Unreal Engine 4.12 comes out of preview status for release time. We'll see.

Screenies to come.

Sky before and after.

This is without the new refelection system also.

nsomnia · 05-16-16, 05:23 PM

Image updates with my lead modellers work in the last few days.

I'm guessing the Marlboro's probably won't be in the final release version.. Lol

nsomnia · 05-19-16, 03:05 PM

No not unless theyre paying haha.

Map update.

nsomnia · 05-20-16, 02:25 PM

Map is now locating all contacts properly

nsomnia · 06-08-16, 11:20 AM

Little preview of the seafloor grass/rocks etc. setup.

Bartolomeus · 06-08-16, 01:13 PM

Amazing!

nsomnia · 06-08-16, 10:08 PM

It needs some tweaking, just wanted to see how procedural foialge and auto landscape (Based on terrain angles) would perform with the ocean in its current state.

Not well. Luckilly it can be VERY optomized and is only needed in port towns, so ports may run a little slower on older computers but open ocean im still aiming for super high FPS.

Had to type and let you know that i've been following your updates with great interest mate. It looks like it's coming along nicely and i see great potential in it. Hope you can keep the motivation up. Good luck!

Welcome to the forums. Me too, got some potential new team-members which will really speed the playble demo release up. I have to compete with HMS mulkruken now.

Got a procedural seafloor setup coded up that uses the FastNoise library to generate chunks of seafloor around the currently active ship. Should help with performance as well as marking a HUGE checkmark on the "stuff thats gonna be hard to do checklist"

we are happy to announce we may have found an art department lead, a radioman PO2c who served during the 70's and 80's.

Being an artist will remove a huge burden from myself and our prop and animation artist who have been sharing the load trying to make stuff to SHOW you guys.

We have some updates but they arnt -quite- ready yet.

As a side note, we are looking to fill our team up with navy/sub minded persons with some sort of project related talent, be sure to get in touch if this fits you!

Just toying around with the US side today. Code department is playing with the physics of torpedoes and missiles launched from underwater and firecontrol associated with such.

bigwillydier · 07-27-16, 04:07 PM

And...

We've picked up TWO MORE talented individuals, both hailing from Germany..

- he's a brilliant coder and.. is kinda blowing my mind with his design ideas..

- and she can take any photo of an object and quickly turn it around in to a highly detailed 3D model!

Welcome Univise and Meli!

HMS Marulken/Neal & Co, your move

The Tench class sub is shaping up too.

In-Game standing in a CLASSIFIED TOP SECRET class sub's sail.
