Please be aware I think somebody has, as a joke, used the plastic wrap filter on these pics.

Yeah, not sure as yet how they do it but the smoke is awesome, almost no clipping at all... Its like some kind of weird smoke-only-depth-based-bloom-hack... Its nice whatever it is.

I hate to say it, but this is really making me think that the Doom 3 engine just flat out sucks. Carmack had better do it right next time around

Yeah, I know how you feel. Its even worse when you notice this isn't the Doom 3 engine

It's a highly modified q3 engine actually.

It's based on the q3 engine actually.
I've read that its been ditched, and they made their own engine. I think they said that they started with the Q3 engine but they was re-writing so much that they just moved onto their own engine...
I may be wrong however, it could still be a highly modified Q3 engine as an old base.

God knows an engine "flat out sucks" just because the specular highlights are a bit strong. It's not like you can't change one variable to lower that. :icon27:
