ScratcH1 10 Posted March 6, 2013 I don't know if it has been noted, but you can actually holster your handgun now! :) I was trying this earlier today and looked it up the controls but couldn't find anything. How do you do that?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purepassion 22 Posted March 6, 2013 I was trying this earlier today and looked it up the controls but couldn't find anything. How do you do that?? oh damn that's a bad case of loose translation! :D I meant lowering as in double tap ctrl. My bad! :o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScratcH1 10 Posted March 7, 2013 oh damn that's a bad case of loose translation! :D I meant lowering as in double tap ctrl.

The flare particle effects you can see at 6:57 are superb!Hallelujah, the Ghillie Suit looks like everything I ever dreamt of! Proper burlap stripes mixed with natural vegetation, combined with a facemask :icon_twisted: Also massive kudos for initiating this series! It's perfect for showing it around in your friendship group or just generally interested people and explaining them what Arma is about and offers them! :) Edited March 7, 2013 by PurePassion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

purepassion 22 Posted March 11, 2013 Hey guys, opt in the alpha "development beta" branch, recieve the latest update and take a look at the shadows! Looks like Arma has jittered and blurred shadows! :) Take a look! They even have a nice DoF-like effect to it. There are some issues such as small shadow spots being rendered with a black dot inside and it looks jittery on low settings, however I seem to able to run them on "high" now. Here is a comparison: This is from before with "Ultra" shadow settings and this is after, on "High" shadow settings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nicholas 5 Posted March 11, 2013 Awesome! Thanks for the information PurePassion! ---------- Post added at 15:11 ---------- Previous post was at 15:07 ---------- The blurriness is affected by the shadow visibility slider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nodunit 397 Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Hey guys, opt in the alpha "development beta" branch, recieve the latest update and take a look at the shadows!. Look as though it still has a few oddities but a daaaamn sight better than the soft shadows we had before, and much more natural than the sharp. Looove it. I hope that it will be optional for interior LOD's too though since right now the driver LOD of the pickup still uses sharp shadows, and curiously the hunter still only has the sharp shadow. Odder still is that some props still have sharp shadows such as power poles. Edited March 11, 2013 by NodUnit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Charles 22 Posted March 11, 2013 Doesn't help much when the development build fucks up everyone else in MP and makes them spawn as a seagull :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Odder still is that some props still have sharp shadows such as power poles. It seems that some objects are still using (such as players and vehicles) geometry shadows rather than the newer ones (geometry-shadows are more CPU intensive too if I am not mistaken, but the others are more GPU intense) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
purepassion 22 Posted March 12, 2013 Perhaps it's related to missing configuration? Btw, have you noted any changes in the LOD transition/levels? I seem to get more low res lods being rendered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RSF TheCapulet 59 Posted March 12, 2013 Shadow quality set to ultra with a shadow distance of 80m seems to be the sweet spot, IMO. I really wish we had seperate adjustments for shadow resolution and shadow distance. I've got FPS to spare, let me use them, BI!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
