There's a whole bunch of screenshots http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=1309446#post1309446 By the way, after watching that new kickstarter video, where they talk about EDGE being good looking, mature and easy to work with engine, those threads about "why they won't use cryengine or whatever" looks kinda ridiculous now :) Edited September 13, 2013 by GeorgeLKMT ■ L-39C/ZA Czech cockpit mod ■ My DCS skins ■ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witchking Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Still way behind where Gaijin is in scenery but i think they are catching up with EDGE. I think the limitation is the lighting engine. That makes a big difference. But definitely still WIP so still cannot make a judgement yet.

71st_Mastiff Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I'm really surprised they (ED) are done with EDGE; and how come DCS World isn't using it yet? According to the guys over at RRG Studios its been done 4 versions ago they are just making maps. (Normandy) how many other maps are being worked on and how come they (ED) is still selling old tech? to me it sound like they are trying to squeeze us out of more money.

ED Team NineLine Posted September 14, 2013 ED Team Share Posted September 14, 2013 Seriously this isnt a thread to compare other engines, specially ones that have maps incredibly smaller in area than what we are talking here.

hegykc Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Hm... so the first images and videos of EDGE in a long time (or ever?) are released from a developer of... WWII content. Think about that one. All you worried about ED getting into WWII. And you can bet your ass the first dedicated server will be WWII. Maybe even multi-crew... WWII is gonna help us all get what we want, and some things might never get done without it, so go on and pledge to DCS WWII: Europe 1944. Even if you never intend to fly s single WWII aircraft. www.replikagear.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucic Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 EDGE and the new image generator (IG) We know that the WE44 (had to come up with some sane acronym :) ) will employ EDGE.

joey45 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 EDGE is the IG. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

GeorgeLKMT Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_engine A game engine is a system designed for the creation and development of video games. The leading game engines provide a software framework that developers use to create games for video game consoles, mobile devices and personal computers. The core functionality typically provided by a game engine includes a rendering engine (“renderer”) for 2D or 3D graphics, a physics engine or collision detection (and collision response), sound, scripting, animation, artificial intelligence, networking, streaming, memory management, threading, localization support, and a scene graph. In many cases game engines provide a suite of visual development tools in addition to reusable software components. These tools are generally provided in an integrated development environment to enable simplified, rapid development of games in a data-driven manner. Game engine developers attempt to "pre-invent the wheel" by developing robust software suites which include many elements a game developer may need to build a game. ■ L-39C/ZA Czech cockpit mod ■ My DCS skins ■ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACADEMIC Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I'm wondering about this Minsk studio - is this an ED studio, and is it the same studio that is developing EDGE? Somehow I remember that the initial attempts to have this work outsourced (in Minsk?) were not successful and had to be started over by another team. Sorry if my memory serves me wrong here, any ED/DCS historians who could clarify? MAC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
