It's the way a poly in a model can be rendered invisible, for example something as complex as a fern can have the frons visible, but the empty space isn't rendered. Imagine a window frame being placed as a model, the gaps where the glass go will be masked and invisible while the rest of the frame is visible, all as one poly.

Is this GOOD or BAD for our FPS?

Less polys could be good but sounds like that takes a fair amount of processor to render certain parts invisible.

Sorry, invazn. I think narby would have one of his goons pull out my toe nails. There was the time I mentioned a bug in aztec_c and he disconnected the brakes on my car.

Damn I guess he does that to everyone =)

No difference, same as rendering a normal poly.

Erik Johnson said in a December 19th interview that the target date was January 7th. Nobody knows for sure if thats still the plan- so don't get your hopes up. Usually target dates announced that far in advance are aren't met by VALVe. We'll see.

Generally fond of Narby's maps, except aztec. (long story) Still feel de_inferno is the best of the lot, but I'll play his new maps knowing they will be better than 90% of the maps out there.



Request time: We need a working tap models and a map of a bar to showcase them.

the only reason 1.6 seems dragged out is cuz such a big deal is being made

of course, not condoning the dipshits who are sitting on a pot of money and cant organize themselves to release a game thats a year overdue

umm, somehow I don't think the guys at Valve are sitting on a pot of money, because that's stupid, it'd be in the bank :/ Would you rather play a game that is buggy, ugly, and all round not very good a year earlier, or would you rather wait for an excellent game, hopefully with no bugs, that looks amazing?



I know i'd rather wait. I don't know about you though.
