Zeos' Observations and Requests

(1/4) > >>

ZeosPantera:
I don't feel like starting a new topic every time I think of something or have an issue. So I think I will just park all my idea's here from now on.

First an observation that probably not many of you have been able to distinguish. I use a CRT.. A big hulking 24" Sony FW900. The best ever made. And using this causes me to miss certain "problems". I installed Outerra on my brothers PC with 23" Samsung LED-LCD to check 4000 series water issues less than a week ago and when I got around to flying into space I noticed the stars completely disappear when you look around. This is of course due to the limitation of all LCDs to do motion tracking. Test it yourself with this little software. PerPixelAn and the "Readability test". I can read up to the top speed of 30 where most LCD's fall apart at 5.

Next the removal of the ability to control the White Balance has been removed within the last few updates. Now I like white balance but I also like the ability to adjust it's intensity or not use it at all.

I also miss the Terrain grid just because of how cool it was. Perhaps toggling that ability with the cfg set to debug mode just so people can show off.

** Also I got a new mouse.. 6000 dpi and so have set my windows sensitivity a long way down to take advantage of higher tracking rates... Now outerra REALLY needs its own mouse sensitivity settings. It is CRAZY fast ingame.

That is all for now.

Jagerbomber:
Does your new mouse not have dpi toggle buttons?  Or a program that changes settings per app?

ZeosPantera:
It does.. Four levels and even when I set it to the lowest setting (1200 dpi which I set in the config) it is depressingly slow in every other game and in windows.. BUT Outerra still flies around crazy.

**!! EDIT ADDITION TO THE LIST.. Make asphalt road surfaces smoother. They look like they have bumpy grass algorithms all over it and a new smooth road is exactly that.. Smooth.


REQUEST::: Can we get a bowling ball?  I am serious. Just have it so a key spawns a bowling ball that can be rolled down hills to show that a real physics engine is plugged into outerra. This would get as much buzz as the Apache I guarantee it.

Jagerbomber:
I want rough roads and roads with random dips and stuff.

As do I but the current default road is a new road. Another road pattern can be distressed to hell with grass showing through and uneven seems.

Also I think the bumpy grass on the bumpy grass may be a bit too bumpy.. grass. In a lower FOV it looks like someone has been sledge hammering the ground for 1000 years. There are some great terrains around where I live I may upload some shots just to give some variety of thought to it.
