.KICK Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 I forgot, but was Doom3 optimized for nVidia or ATi :blush: ? I am not entirely sure on that tbh. :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draugluin Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 nVidia, just like Half Life was for ATi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigitalFreedom Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 nVidia, just like Half Life was for ATi lol, you know the source code for hl2 was leaked, barely any optmizations for ati or nvidia, if anything nvidia had more because value tryed to even it out a bit, also this is the source code that was leaked, i bet the real verson that will be released will be more optimized for ati because of the contract ati won....

Betelgeuse Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 Doom3 is going to be great. Those scans are absolutely awesome, the only thing is.. I don't think my P4 2.54 is going to be enough, although I do have it coupled with 1GB DDR and a Radeon 9800Pro. I guess I have to wait and see, it's going to be quite a ride! :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizkit Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 I hope my system will handle it. If not, then I will have to upgrade to the water-cooled 3ghz system I wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zepolcire Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 lol, this just proves, all that doom 3 is is a bunch of low poly models with hig res textures!, atleats hl2 is all real polys, not low ploy high res textures, its both :D I think that is the point Carmack has been trying to make all along. You dont need more poly's, just better textures, then when that wont do anymore, then go to more polys. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99 to Life Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 cool....the HI-RES models look great, then just lower the polygons. It works pretty well...I hope there will be HI-POLY models released later on when computers can handle it. Half-Life 2 will be somewhat the same...they said when the systems can handle larger textures and so on..they'll release an update for it. EDIT: BTW, my system should be fine for now. I upgrade every 6 months so I don't lose any money. I sell my rig while it's still fresh and get whatever is barley out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think these are the RECOMMENDED system requiremensts though. I'm getting a P4 3.2 GHz EE soon. That should help about 10 fps or so. Either way, I won't have this system in 6 months. I'm looking forward to PCI-Express! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizkit Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 I wanted a new pc for ahhile, with hyperthreading and watercooling. This and Half-Life 2 is just a reason for me to get it.

TRiN Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 Those are recommended specs, not minimum ;) . The game will scale down the graphics accordingly to your pc specs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 lol, this just proves, all that doom 3 is is a bunch of low poly models with hig res textures!, atleats hl2 is all real polys, not low ploy high res textures, its both :D I'm sure you aware most new games use bump mapping and textures from hi-red models to achieve realism on low poly models. This means HL2 as well. And what the hell are real polys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99 to Life Posted December 1, 2003 Share Posted December 1, 2003 if you're not gonna get a new computer to play new games, then have fun playing Quake 3 engine games while we enjoy the next best thing in game technology. People want everything, but they don't want to pay for it. Sad world we live in. You give and you get...learn people! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
