deadnail Posted March 27, 2002 Someone tell me what this thread has to do with politics a/o religion, because I fail to see the connection. My originating post did, however, have some nice Doom related questions at the end I'd like answered so once again, wtf? =) 0 Share this post Link to post

spank Posted March 27, 2002 deadnail: nevermind, I'm just a fuckzit who doesn't trust in official band websites' news because in general they're always one year late :) Guess I should start paying more attention to hevydevy.com since it's worth it. 0 Share this post Link to post

NiGHTMARE Posted March 28, 2002 JPGs are for high res photos and screenshots, NOT textures. JPG textures look blurry as ****, especially as modern engines already blur the textures themselves. 0 Share this post Link to post
Doom-Child Posted March 28, 2002 That's the filtering at work. JPEGs aren't particularly blurry on their own, unless you freak with the image beforehand. Besides, filtering a JPEG is like lashing a rabid wolverine to your ass anyway. DC 0 Share this post Link to post
NiGHTMARE Posted March 29, 2002 Trust me, saving a texture as a .jpg loses detail. Unless, that is, you use very low compression, in which case what's the point in using .jpg? 0 Share this post Link to post
deadnail Posted March 29, 2002 Like I said many times before a jpeg with 1 compression is still smaller than a raw bitmap but looks 99% as good. And don't ask me about the validity of jpeg as a texture format. It's in Q3A so if you question that Dima will come and bombard you with sentence fragments and assumptions! 0 Share this post Link to post

NiGHTMARE Posted March 29, 2002 Who said anything about bitmaps? There are plenty of other, better, file formats out there... 0 Share this post Link to post
Doom-Child Posted March 29, 2002 Q3 has no story, very little replay, and only a couple of redeeming qualities. Does that mean we should strive for the same in games we produce? DC 0 Share this post Link to post

[LoC]Gizmo Posted June 30, 2002 i stopped playing fighting games because they get much too old much too fast i don't think that ANY console should have netplay, it'll just burden the net with every 12 year old whos mommy bought him an xbox, ps2, or cube some new picture formats would be nice, but you can't expect anyone nowadays to go out of thier way to appease anyone else's whim, unless one of these programmers of zdoom still avidly edit doom and want the support for thier own nifty mods and such i've heard a good bit of the new korn album, and it sucks i've heard a qestionable demo tape of a new metallica song, it sucks amd one of these days i will kill a cyberdemon with my chainsaw -gizmo *EDIT* yah, and i think quake 2 is heads above q3a in Deathmatch but i do like the quake 3 engine...but its time to get a new engine that looks prettier out to the public erm, grapics don't mean a whole hell of alot to me anymore...just as long as the gameplay and you can play the game more than once over 0 Share this post Link to post
