BadBenson 0 Posted May 25, 2009 nice pictures. i'm really looking forward to fly through these valleys. and mucho respecto to your working speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icebreakr 3159 Posted May 25, 2009 Thanks guys, its a hard work (as many of you already know) and with crappy & bugged tools that make it even harder :) but map is coming along nicely, I've been able to increase FPS up to 60 from previous beta test running at around 30-40. End of this week is my personal deadline, so I'm putting a lot of hours into Panthera since Friday:) I must keep away from testing (my team is now doing that now) since I quickly loose couple of work hours having 2much fun =) p.s. guys - pray to God, Allah, Buddha, etc. to see the release before my g/f kills me ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MamiyaOtaru 1 Posted June 3, 2009 This is wonderful. I hope to be reminded of some wonderful memories. I drove through the area with my family once, on the way from Venice to Berlin. We got tired and found a Pension in Jesenice. They seemed surprised to see Americans (I don't think Jesenice is the biggest tourist draw). No one spoke English. Fortunately they spoke German so we could communicate. They were astonished that we didn't know about Bled, and told us that in the morning we had to backtrack to see it. It was beautiful, but what I remember most is something my mother said. We were in our car parked by an ice cafe, and she said something so funny we sat and laughed for five minutes. The car shook, and the people eating their ice just stared. I was very glad the car had German plates, so they could think it was a bunch of crazy Germans :) And to think we almost drove straight through. I'm glad we took some time to see a small part of that beautiful region. Sorry for the travelogue, but I am really looking forward to going back :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icebreakr 3159 Posted June 3, 2009 Hey MamiyaOtaru, thanks for sharing that story with us. Its also my hometown ;) you're welcome to visit us again, most of us now speak Engri... err English ;) Update: beta release 0.99 is on the way, so that will keep your minds off A2 until it arrives (properly patched) :) map will also be available in A2, we're just tired of using desert maps and miss firefights in dense forests.

icebreakr 3159 Posted June 24, 2009 Just a quick info: I'm planning to release Island Panthera 0.99 (final beta) this Thursday/Friday so BIS will have a bit more time to patch up A2 ;) Its nearly done after 2 months of hard work and I'll need your report on what to fix in final v1.0.

rocket 9 Posted June 26, 2009 This is looking excellent. A mountaineering guide I used in the past was from Slovenia, and he shows me photos of outstanding and amazing terrain there.
