Description
With some new knowledge in the pipeline, some ships' light maps are getting an overhaul or slight tweak for better visual results. Here's the Nebula-class SD.
yes please
Wow...
Another reason for my graphics card to hate me...
*turns up all his settings and hopes it's on the beta version already*
Sins doesn't make use of your GPU at all; you can have an old 9800 GTS or a Titan; Sins will run the same on both.
huh, back when I had my old PC and I without a graphics card, and then I installed one, I could have sworn my FPS increased a good measure.
sins def uses gpu lol.
I am guessing here, but perhaps sins only uses graphics card to increase FPS, but if you are fine with 30 FPS you could play like that without graphics card?
Nope; I know someone who has in fact tested one of the 900 series or Titan versus an old 9800 series on a set up that was otherwise the exact same, and found no discernible difference. Sins is very much CPU bound.
strange, my old PC was a dual 3.0ghz processor with only a integrated video card. I bought a dedicated video card (Only a GT 430, much better than nothing) and that sent me over 60 FPS, where the videos of the EVE mod I have on youtube were only 20-30fps and that was before my graphics card.
If you switched from an integrated to a dedicated video card that's another story; that switch let your CPU run at full power, rather than having to divert some power to the onboard GPU.
Yeah I don't doubt it. I run the game on a crap laptop, with some integrated chipset, and with the graphics on low, I can run the game at 30 fps with no difficulty. Depending on the size of the map and how many players in it, I can bump up the ship graphics settings with no problems too.
Blasphemy! Why would such a great game make such poor decisions!
Holy cow, that looks amazing! Nicely done.
OMG looks so nice
So pretty! I must have!
Wow, interesting.
I can only hope that touching up older models means we'll one day see the Rothana's Red Bridges gone lol
Awesome job by the way, looking forward to the next release.
wow love that look
