Duke's new building models

Since the other thread was closed, I made a new one.

I tried out your three test maps on 107, Duke. I used my gaming laptop:

CPU: P4 2.66Ghz
GPU: ATI Radeon Mobility 7500 (32MB)
RAM: 512

My computer sucks.

Map A, I got ~40FPS in the building
Map B, I got 45 to 50 FPS
Map C, I got 50 to 60 FPS

This is all better than the usual 5-15 FPS I get in buildings.

EDIT: Can I have the models for the buildings for 107/108 in the new FPS-saver format?

 

Thanks for testing! Your results are similar to what Dizzy got aswell.

They'll be alot fast because they're isolated, for example Map A is the same setup as the buildings currently are. Check this second test out, Dizzy got the best FPS in E.

What's the fps-saver format?

 

He meant to say: "So that I can use them in normal games too and don't ever get those rediculous 5-9fps anymore"

eg. give him the real models

 

Oh, no. These are just tests, the textures for the test don't exist, its just a blank white texture at the size i plan to make them to see what the performance gains will be and therefore go ahead with that route.

 

Will it be included in the public release?

 

These are just tests, there are no plans set in concrete for when they will be created. Certainly not for 1.08.

 

damn :/ that sucks..
No chance of me playing empires on my laptop then

 

Well at least this way on the empires trailer of 2008 we can show "improved performance" as well

 

And we can't add that to 1.08? My FPS went from 20 in buildings to 70.

 

lol duke :D

 

Tell you what chuckles, you find a way to warp time and extend days to 48 hours and i'll think about it.

Done and done. Now give me those buildings.
