I wonder though, if both maps could be actually merged into one ...
Maybe there'd be too many things going on, too much detail.. but still.

Sorry, I should've specified.
I meant merging the original levels, for Unreal or preferably UT.
Perhaps because a pure hardware-based calculation of the trace would be significantly faster ?Bot_40 said:?
You want to do a line trace on the gpu? That's one of the most bizarre suggestions I've ever heard
What exactly is supposed to be wrong with the existing way UT does a trace?
The only reason 'against' this is that no card has been designed with this behaviour in mind. However I'm pretty sure that you could do some pretty nifty calculations if one were to embrace the GPU as a secondary processor. Kind of like the floatingpoint arithmetic used to be handled by a separate cpu in the past.
The Redeemer rules!! (strangelove may be fun... I dont know... I havent tried. but I agree on it should be a mutator not the real ingame redeemer)
well... in envy they do have the chance of correcting the **** they done to it in 2k3/4
and that deformable explosion thing sounded cool... definetly something to bear in mind for epicmg.

uhh i meant, a purely graphical effect where the video card takes in all the geometry around the redeemer explosion, and sort of casts shadows from the explosion... and these shadows would determine the shape of the explosion cloud effect, so you dont see it reach where it doesnt hit
hm how about, a homage to strangelove in the form of an assault map, or a conquest objective... like 'the enemy has stolen the redeemer rocket ! oh thank goodness it has no navigation built into it yet, they cant do much with it... oh wait, someone is actually riding on it to steer it! deny them! ' or something

I do Agree with [Apoc]Discord, these maps have a good balance with deemer because there, you need to deserve your deemer to get it. And I guess it s fair that it is this way when you think on how easy you can frag with this lovely baby.
Actually, I would totally hide the deemer in ASBESTOS, so those players who do not have a clock ticking in their head would have to enter a potential trap to check if it s here at the very end of the corridor or not.
In ANTALUS, I would put the deemer on the very top of the high cliffes (it have to be visible from the valley), so that noone could complain on how easy you fragged them with your deemer.
and I would like to have a deemer in DE-OSIRIS, some places on the roof for instance.
I'd like to see more map-specific superweapons, which is what epic said they were going to do. The redeemer is fun and strangelove would be cool as an included mutator. Just as long as they allow people to disable superweapons, then everone will be happy.

... lol, but seriously, I agree with what you said 100%.
Your an odd little man, AVP, aren't you?AVP said:I like the redeemer it blows people to smtherens
Or have a special option for a War Intended Reedemer that like makes a super nuke that makes a big crater and can blow up a mansion in one shot. Just for fun tho.
What I'd like to see is if someone manages to trick jump on top of a 'deemer rocket in miodflight they gain manual control of the rocket (though if someone is actually controlling it it'd be trickier to control), but it'd be a hell of a thing to pull off and not blow the rocket up.
I want a redeemer like a Nuke, an ion painter like the "independance day" laser thing that the mothership shoots and a target painter that calls forth cluster bombs. BUT ONLY FOR CONQUEST/UNREAL WARFARE AND ONSLAUGHT.
