What happens if you set the refraction scale setting back to 1.0?

Re: MacOS, OpenGL, and OpenMW

MoltenVK has been made into an open standard, so Vulkan applications can run when only Metal is provided. There are OpenGL to Vulkan wrappers, too. Worst case scenario, if MacOS ever truly drops OpenGL support, there'll be ways of getting it through layers upon layers of wrappers. This sounds error-...

Re: Elder-scrolls IV Oblivion

OSG definitely had limitations with skinning, so we had to roll our own system there. Not using the system provided by the graphics library isn't the end of the world.

Re: Lysol's normal mapped texture packs

I'm not sure I'd even sink the mortar that much - looking at the no-parallax pictures, it looks like the stones are rough on the faces but have straight, sharp edges. If the mortar was nearly flush (i.e. as if someone had put the stones together than scraped off the excess with a finger or trowel so...

Re: Texturing Concepts

Any idea what workflow we'd prefer? I tend to think in metalness because I'm a materials engineer, but would like to get into the other headspace well in advance of any actual support so I can start working on things ahead of time. Metalness is good for things which work with metalness, but not eve...

Re: An Open Letter to the OpenMW devs

I will have a massive reservoir of knowledge from them to help me learn. Just be careful that you don't learn outdated practices from experienced programmers - there are some things you used to have to do in C++ that you should never do any more, and someone trained a long time ago who hasn't been ...

Re: Texturing Concepts

Parallax mapping runs much faster than tesselation on a lot of hardware. It's also easier to apply to badly-made meshes, which Bethesda are great at producing. In an ideal system, tessellation is used to take a 'template' mesh and produce a new mesh which has an appropriate level of detail for the ...

Re: Benchmarks / Hardware Specs

I don't think Bullet is used for animation at all. It might end up used for physics objects (e.g. rollable cabbages) when we start supporting later games, though.

Re: Oblivion Support in OpenMW: Organisation and Planning

If it supports ShadowPlay (recentish Nvidia) or ReLive (recentish AMD) then one of those. If not, OBS.

Re: Oblivion Support in OpenMW: Organisation and Planning

Can someone please contact cc9ii and tell him to stop using Bandicam and switch to OBS, ShadowPlay or ReLive? It's bugging me and comments were disabled on the video when I watched it, so I can't tell him on YouTube.
