  • I play a Quake 2 mod that converts it to a ww2 game and it’s as ugly as you can expect for a game from before the turn of the century. Ray tracing in this game is short of magic. No assets changed, and it makes it look so good, it’s unbelievable.

    Of course sometimes we also play this game in software mode which doesn’t even colored lighting, just pure rendering on the CPU. So grainy…



  • I don’t think it reflects, it’s just slightly transparent and the object extends under the surface.

    In those days, when you entered a room in a game that had very shiny tiles that reflected the room, it was simply a copy of the room, upside down and flipped, and the floors were transparent. It created the illusion of reflection.




  • Literally running into this problem. I have a microsoft account with shared calendar and just can’t seem to add it to the outlook app. It keeps trying to go to my domain. There’s a button to specify the provider, outlook, but it just won’t do it. Can’t tell what this closed source garbage is doing wrong, it shows the manual entry fields with my server’s info entered wrongfully.
