thank you very much Maldo ;)
ReplyDeleteCan u give a heads up on the filesize..Actually I hope its big, the bigger the better.
ReplyDelete@John, bigger is not better. I think now without compression and without final clean, it's around 1.7 Gb. I expect to reduce size in final release.
ReplyDeletemaldo... I'm wondering can you manipulate tessellation??? like add tessellation to some items that aren't already tessellated? because i'd really like to see caffe tables round ad it's annoying to see them all squarey... And maybe water tanks on roofs also... they should be tessellated to look round not crooked and squarey....
ReplyDeleteAltho i got to say good job maldo on this mod. I'd be ashamed and fire myself from crytek team. One guy to do more then a whole team from grahic division???? now thats messed up yo :)
*If i was working at crytek i'd be ashamed and fire myself from crytek.
ReplyDelete@maldo: Is it going to be an update over Maldo 2.0 or is going to be a clean installation containing all the previous textures as well
ReplyDeleteLove those leafs textures!! Cant wait to see them in action MaLDo!! (;
ReplyDeleteI can't wait
ReplyDeleteonly 1.7 Go :,(
ReplyDeleteI will prefer 4 or 5 Go ;)
I can't wait too
@Bigounet : Why do you want absolutely a big file ? To test your super hard disk or internet connection ?
ReplyDeleteBig files don't make quality. Effects like Tessellation and POM are the main tools to sublimate textures. Texture compression can reduce size without visual loss of quality. And global texture quality doesn't depend of size.
If the optimized mod (2gb) is as beautiful as the non optimized (5gb), it's better. More people will be able do download it (I have 512k connection) and texture will take less VRAM so it will run smoother.
Merci Maldo t'es le meilleur !!!!!!
ReplyDelete@KuroTenshi
ReplyDeleteA texture in 1024 > 256.
After, you can dowload 100Go with a 56k , it's long but possible ;)
looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteDiablow, stop the insults, no one is telling what to do , and reduce quality when we want more quality is a contradiction from you.
ReplyDeleteMaldo you are the best , i never seen a mod like this. Also the config utility is a dream, we can quit tessellation from objects but leave the pom and the tessellation in water.
ReplyDeleteYou should try learning to read posts more carefully.I said people should stop whining about texture resolution vram and stuff which could eventually make maldo reduce the quality of his project in order to satisfy those guys.Wanting a outstanding look and complaining about vram related to their 1gb or less cards is simply something I cant stand.The crytek pack is designed for people with 768 - 1gb vram (setup during install) and anyone who wants more has to buy a 1.5-2gb or more card.
ReplyDeleteA quality modder makes no compromise in quality.If you people cant run it on 1gb then stick to the crytek pack or buy a better card which doesnt cost a fortune in 2011.I know this sounds arrogant and selfish but the look matters not you getting it to work with cheap cards.
ReplyDeleteI am checking this page about ever 5 hours. IT'S KILLING ME!
ReplyDeleteCalm down, it's just a mod. The most probably date for release is september 25.
ReplyDeleteit's not just a mod!!! you finish the game on PC ;)
ReplyDeleteHey is this going to be your last development project of crysis 2 or are you going to develop further like maybe till Maldo 5.0...anyways if you are going to develop further after 3.0 are you open to suggestions cause I can suggest you in a lot of areas it could use tweaks....that is ofcourse unless 3.0 is already perfect.BTW 3.0 looks awesome so far
ReplyDeleteOh and another thing...is maldo 3.0 going to affect multiplayer too cause dx 11 didnt fully affect multiplayer before...some of the things like tesselation were disabled I think..
ReplyDelete@John, I have not internet at home so I can't test multiplayer. MaLDoHD 3.0 is all about singleplayer. I don't know how to implement changes in multiplayer because I think this mode is more locked.
ReplyDeleteI've been doing some things with AI and models meshes and there is a very interesting world to discover (and fix). But this mod took many months (that I enjoyed a lod) without being able to play computer games. I want to play. Many games left to open as Witcher 2, Deus Ex, Dirt 3, Limbo, Bastion (I'm waiting internet connection to activate them XD). So probably this version will be the last. But there are many people out there who can do this and much more.
Hey baby, you really going to keep this young lady waiting until Sept. 25th. I am ready to make passionate love with you as soon as you finish this mod.
ReplyDeleteLol.Looks like you got either a admirer(ess) or a troll maldo ^^
ReplyDelete@Diablow : I don't have any problem of performance (I have 2gb of VRAM and I would dl 5gb even with 512k). What I wanted to tell is size isn't the main criteria for quality.
ReplyDeleteI am used to play with 4096*4096 textures (mods). I simply said : if visual quality is the same with improved performances or reduced size, then it's even better. It's called "optimization".
I didn't say "reduce quality".
I am mainly talking about file size, not texture size.
ReplyDeleteSize matters... bigger is better. Don't listen to these kids Maldo.
ReplyDeleteI am a developer like Maldo, not a kid. And Maldo do what he thinks is the best.
ReplyDeleteI was only responding to persons which were disappointed that the mod didn't weight 5-6gb whereas it's wonderful at 2gb (the actual size).
It's simplistic to tell that size makes quality. It contributes (to some degree) but a ton of others things (often more important) matter.
I'm checking the blog like Galaxy every day :P
ReplyDeleteI can't wait !!!
I am checking the blog several time a day ^^
ReplyDeleteI can't wait too.
Maldo wake up!!!
ReplyDeleteI have reinstaled the game today, now i wait......
ReplyDeleteI lay in my bed naked everyday without food or water until Maldonado releases this mod.
ReplyDelete^^^^^LOL. Buahaha.
ReplyDeleteI doubt seriously Maldo being attracted by a naked skeleton.
ReplyDeleteWhat chance do I have of being able to run this pack with 4GB ram on Vista 32 bit, and 768mb of vram?
ReplyDeletecom on man
