Unreal 3.0 and Dynamic Radiosity Lighting

[Reverend]

In a PM to me, Scali has alluded that I may have actually played games that he has contributed to. He could be right. I mean, how many thinks I may have played a part in any of the games you guys may have played?

In any case, let's leave Scali (and some others) alone with his opinions on why the Doom3 rendering engine is jurassic-like in age, on why Carmack should not get too much credit for the Doom3 rendering engine (since Scali came up with a similar engine 2 years ago), on why the Doom3 rendering engine (which has appeared in a game we can all buy) couldn't have been as hyped as it is if all the other id staff's input to Carmack wasn't taken into account by Carmack himself, and on whether, really, if Scali could have released that similar-to-Doom3 rendering engine of his and have it implemented in games that were available 2 years ago without any of the prevalent DX8 or DX9 hardware currently existing in the market today.

Dirt cheap, Rev. Dirt cheap.

Cheap, yeah. But are my points logical?

Let's just focus back on topic (what wa sit again?... UE3, is it?) and avoid criticisms of forum participants. Otherwise, I'll lock this thread.

What a surprise.

We are allowed to criticize forum participants in a thread about, well, commenting about forum participants. But not in this particular thread persistently. I am sure you don't persistently criticize forum participants in threads that have nothing to do with "criticizing forum participants".

More of the same means locking this thread. I have no hesitation in banning certain forum participants here for repeatedly ignoring the reasons I have continuously stated about not posting OT stuff. And, no, I don't need Dave's "permission". I have been very patient and tolerant. I will not allow the B3D forums to degenerate any further than it already has. Anyone that does not like the "unwritten rules" I have stated in various posts of mine can either abide by such rules or be prepared to be banned. There is only one loser when it comes to banning.

In fact, this thread has gone so far OT that I am locking this thread.
