New info!!!

(translated)

  • when there's an explosion near you, your soldier is projected to the ground, and it apparetnly isn't scripted. when you get too much shots your soldier starts closing and opening his eyes(?) from the pain, and your visibility gets bad.
  • the maps should be very varied(new york, paris, nocturn, desert, etc)
  • The basis of body awareness is from Mirror's Edge, which was subsequently improved. 3D animations come largely from licenses such as FIFA and NBA Street.
  • frostibite 2.0 has been in devellopment since 2008. "PC Jeux" got surprised by the engine, it's kind of revolutionary, like the first engine from Crysis was back in 2007.

I'm guessing that's some early alpha version of Frostbite 2 or something like that? :x

the game is not nearly finished yet. And really the only reason that shot looks bad is there is no aa applied so its all very jagged. Its also zoomed out very far.

Here's the same shot with 16x supersampling AA:

the shot seems to be one of those used to show of the bounce lighting.

I can't wait to see it in action.

I'm guessing you'll need a beefy graphics card for realtime bounce lighting though. and it probably won't affect characters, not sure, but that would be heavy. and enviroment we already had it it, it was just baked or half baked before. but now we get it light, and from secondary sources like explosions.

but yeah, it does add a lot to a 3D scene.

I hope it'll run on midrange hardware. If so, it'd make for an amazing gaming experience. Couple that with dynamic shadows, an awesome animation and sound engine, and large maps... damn, I'm already drooling.

Its Battlefield i was already sold on the idea when they just announced the name let alone anything else. Im holding off pre-ordering till i find out more about the multiplayer, im hoping they are going to announce a beta in a few months i bought Medal of Honor just to get early BF3 beta access. Im just happy they are going with a realism slant not some fictional war.

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
