  1. I'm still waiting for my DK2 but I actually got my Google Cardboard today. It's super impressive for what it is - a nearly-free VR device if you've already got a decent smartphone (I have a Nexus 5). As far as I know there's only Google's app for things to do with it so far but it's really good flying around in Google Earth and they have some cool little demo apps for it. The resolution is twice the DK1's and the rotational tracking seems almost as good to me, although it's been a while since I've had access to my DK1. Really cool stuff


  2. Whoa nice!

    What kind of work was involved in porting it, and how long did it take? InFlux was made in UE3 right? So did that make things easier?

    Seriously though, that lighting. :D

    It was basically a lot of exporting and importing meshes and textures and re-creating materials, and I have a basic tool that converts map data (just meshes and lights) from UE3 to 4. Not too hard, just time consuming.


  3. If you're using the foliage tool, you prooooobably can't have the grass camera-facing without delving into c++. But you could pretty easily make a blueprint that places camera-facing grass everywhere. That looks real nice, by the way.


  4. Thanks ya'll. I've been toying around with it very intermittently for probably like a year, but I'm stepping it up a bit now and going for a funding application. Hopefully have a cool video together in the next week or so.

    Your thing looks super cool, tell me moar


  5. I'm with Hover. I also have no idea about bill leniency but their support is excellent and their site/control panel thing is simple and easy and intuitive rather than the horrible clusterfuck I've come to expect from domain registrars and hosting providers


  6. Jesus christ, Rodi. That is bizarre/heavy.

     

    I have moved into a share house where my housemates are kind of really unclean it turns out. A couple days in I felt I had to clean the floor of the bathroom, and I found one of these caked onto the side of the bath, completely covered in gunk
