The texture detail rivals quake2. The boundaries between the polys are very noticeable (ugly squares all the place). No mipmapping (?).

It seems as core design put it togheter in a hurry. Oh well, they did it also with tr2 and tr3.

Dont you just HATE the Christmas we-gotta-our-game-out-the-door-even-if-its-****ed rush. Patch-mania runs wild again.

Not bad. Actually the first game demo that supports bumpmapping. To my knowledge.
BTW what did you do after opening the big blue doors?

[Star F.]

Do you think THIS is EMBM? Then it would be disappointing. A special patch seems to be required. Not yet, not now.

[rickn]

Star: what the hell are you talking about? The demo does support EMBM, it is all thru out the demo - if you cannot tell you are blind.

RickN --

no, I'm not sure at all. Saw it on a Voodoo 2 as well, and the difference in fact is hardly noticeable -- as far as bump mapping is concerned. Compare it to the Tech Demo (especially the ripples on the water surface) and you'll see what I mean.
