When will 2.4 come out?

^Subject.

I can go so far as to say this game looks better than Doom 3 :D . There is just the issue of stuttering even though some of us have healthy FPS though so I'm itching to see a new version.

Hoping. :D

Nothing's been publicly announced for what the plans are for the next version, so it's hard telling.

Get some screenshots of Nexuiz with 4xAA. Nexuiz also has better projectile graphics when you set its particles to 1.0.

Its rocket trails rule. Hands. Down.

Where this game loses is in its bump mapping. Doom 3 has better bump maps with corrugated surfaces that really show.

Some aspects not all. I just got awed that freeware can look so good.

Peace!

Doom3 is more ploished, but cyan... those nexuiz shots are even older then your underwear (however thats possible). If yer gunna post image comparesions use recent stuff.

This is better:

And I still have not enabled AA here yet. Again, Doom 3's bump mapping towers but if future versions of Nexuiz will have better bumpmapping, it WILL trounce Doom 3. (that and eliminate stutter)

afaik darkplaces/nexuiz has at least as good bumpmapping support as doom3 has, with the advantage of deluxemapping. like the shots i posted show.

I think when, er... that one guy who posted the really good models in Editing gets back to his school computer and finishes some of his ideas up, we could see some Doom 3 level stuff in Nex with the models.

Hmmm.... not to be a naysayer but some walls in your shots look flat. Not being argumentative, mind. Just my two cents.

BUT yes, some of the bots I encountered --- like the one in my screenshot --- do exhibit good bump mapping that sometimes are better than Doom's.
