    The game itself is pretty shitty but the experience is awesome. If you curious about the future of human interaction with the world (namely AR) definitely give it a try.

    Here's a cool way to level up faster: Capture a ton of Pidgeys, Rattatas and the like, use a lucky egg and evolve them all at once (1000 XP for each, 2000 XP if it's a new pokeman)

Still haven't used any decals or vertex painting which will be the final pass. Gonna get a lot more vegetation in there and lastly some fitting post-process effects.

    Very cool man, great work! Are you using baked or dynamic lighting? If you are using baked make sure to crank up the GI as it will help soothing the shadows, they are really harsh right now.

    I assume you are going for this kind of lighting? Sorry couldn't find a good ref quickly. If so make sure to brighten up your sky and shadows to match the sun intensity.

    Some fog would also go a long way to make the scene read better and help the game area separate from the background :)

    Really cool work, looking forward to seeing more!

    NJ Portugal! Totally deserved imo, they are survivors.

    We can bitch all we want about Portugal not playing the best football, but like it or not, they were champions by their own efforts, specially playing without Ronaldo. When Brazil was in a similar situation the team couldn't hold it and lost 7-1 lol.

    11 hours ago, Buddy said: @MinosDid you try CV1 or only DK2 though? I found standing up in CV1 just as good as VIVE with the exception of limited space. I like my vive more but ergonomics of CV1 are nicer (lighter, better straps).

    Yeah, the sensors might be better on the CV1 but you still can't "walk" back and forth can you? If you do that, the sensors interpret your movement as leaning forward or backward, instead of actually moving in an space like it does on the Vive. I might be talking out of my ass here but at least that's the impression that I got.

    I didn't try the CV1 but from what I know it's only an improvement over the DK2 right? Doesn't add anything new.

    Being able to walk around added a whole new layer of immersion that I find completely lacking on the Oculus.

    In a Vive, not only your head and hands react as you would expect, so does your body too to some extent. I tried to stand up using the the oculus several times but it just didnt feel right, I could never put my finger on why, but now it all makes sense: even though you can stand up on the oculus, moving your body around only accomplishes screwing up the camera alignment and other nasty effects. Perfect recipe to motion sickness.

    I think it's pretty obvious that Oculus will add some sort of room scale detection at some point, but its pretty unlikely it will be as good as the Vive one, as cumbersome as it is to setup.

    Sprony: porn should work just as fine. im sure room scale detection opens up even more possibilities for masturbation :P

    Tried a Vive from a friend, immediately sold my Oculus and bought one. It's everything I expected from VR :)

    El topo rules.

    Wouldn't call it pretentious, the movie is filled with hidden meaning that only makes sense if you do some reading. It was also made at a time when hipsters didn't exist

    I still need to watch Holy Mountain. But I'm afraid the trip might be too hard on that one

    I stopped watching at the end of season 3 (or 4 cant remember). Though the production values, characters and setting are superb, a lot of episodes are filled with plot points that don't go anywhere and exist only to fill air time. Just like soap operas.

    Really sad they are dropping the ball with this.

    Looks much more interesting and proper than the action packed 5 and 6. 6 was an insult to the original games and played more like gears of war than RE.

    I can feel the RE DNA in this, so I might actually pick it up if it turns out to be good~

    Wait...do I really need to use Oculus to run this?

    You can run without an oculus too :)

    That's why I usually wait several weeks before converting my projects to the latest Unreal version...Something major always breaks on new versions XD
