Very cool!
I can't find it, but there was a demo that showed off water using tiny spheres, then a transparent mesh covered it (kinda like the way the matress works in the Novodex Rocket with the matress), except being confined to limits of a shape of a matress, it was loose and fluid-like. A...
First game in use? Lots of people didn't think SLI would take off because the drivers sucked and it cost 2x as much. -_-
That can be said for everything the first time something is used. Ageia's saying they their physics engine will be used in 100 games by 60 developers thru to 2007. Havok has...
That must be why Havok is swaying away from it and implementing hardware acceleration on graphics cards, as if GPUs didn't already have enough to do. Not everyone has quad-SLI to do 60fps then add physics acceleration.
One guy on XS took a 2.9ghz Conroe and ran a software acceleration-only...
It killed performance because it was a company's first hardware release using its first drivers in the first game that supported it. On top of that, they used two API for physics: Havok and Ageia, Havok for everything but explosion detail, Ageia for explosions. You might as well install a 7800...
I was only posting to make you guys aware of the release, not do something crazy and unpredictable like go and download it. I guess I'm going to need to ask everyone to temporarily pause your download so I can finish first. ;)
Just got my card yesterday. Popped it in, installed drivers, all the PCI install requests dissapeared, and worked great. Then I was playing BF2 and took a screen shot that then froze the PC. Rebooted to find myself having the same problem as Justinkoko; won't boot after BIOS, works fine with the...
The game runs great for me at highest detail on 1920x1440 2xAA and 16xAF.
I have a save file with all three cities open to roam freely if anyone wants them. I also have some pics @ 1920x1440 with 2xAA and 16xAF. Just post or PM/IM me if you want either.
Here is the save file. Right-click...
