"Who created you Cyn?"
@sentry-crosis
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"My creators?"
Cyn puts a hand on her head, mostly to stop it from tilting over too far while smiling lightly.
"Ponder- I suppose that I am still technically JCJenson property. Hmm..."
The Worker then frowns, the optics in her visor flickering while seemingly staring at nothing in the distance.
"I am m-my own self though..."
Beauty Booty! - for Ranamon
"Look but no touchy."

[ SEND “✏✏” FOR ME TO DRAW OUR MUSES TOGETHER! ]
[ We're just going to ignore the fact that I went overboard with my tech brushes, m'kay.
But, c'mon. Replacing a Lightcycle with this thing? It's got the looks, it's got an attitude, it's... well, it's got an attitude. ]
@sentry-crosis sent: "Ok so your telling me that, not only are ghosts real, but you and your sister fight them?"
“Yep~ Not only that, but you’re sitting here talking to a real, live, angel. Feel honored I let you take me out on a date.”

There had been no rain this cycle, but the ever-present cloud cover continued to mask the sky.
Ark had taken a much-needed break, she had been going after the Occupation nearly constantly.
Even though Crosis was part of the Occupation, he was the closest she had to a friend right now.
She gently took one stick of Pocky out of the casually-offered box. Ark lightly twirled the snack between her fingers, inspecting the new-to-her treat. The smell was unusual, different from anything she had encountered before.
Tilting her head slightly, she asked, "What is it? I mean...the box says 'Pocky', but I haven't heard of it before."
8. Got an antagonist in your life?
Crossing their arms, Makro began to speak.
“Yeah, sure, I’ve got things that slow me down. Clu being one of them. As much as I am grateful that he gave me a new job after he took over, I still can’t help but get a little irritated when I’m not given the level of respect I deserve. I wish to be treated more fairly—and I wish that Clu would quit teasing me,” Makro huffed and puffed, out of breath. He had spoken too much and too quickly, clearly upset.
“I guess another thing that’s antagonistic are the programs that think I shouldn’t be doing what I’m doing. They’re just getting in the way of my research,” They explained, now shooing you off with their finger.
Who do you think is a bigger villain stu? Vitiate or Palpatine?
Tough call. But I gotta say Vitiate. Conquering his home planet by ten years old? Every other Sith Lord afraid of him? Devouring planets ala Nihilus without any ill effects? Yeah, even by GFFA standards, that’s stretching it. Vitiate had his side project where he was loved and adored while shamelessly playing both the Republic and Sith Empires. He exerted that IQ draining field that Sues/Stus tend to do on established characters, turning them into complete idiots (come on. Revan and Exile charging in with no backup plans?), being totally unbeatable (even when he “loses,” he spins it into a win somehow). Oh, and he’s cheated death more often and more inexplicably than Palpy.
Can you apply ray tracing to character models as well? I'd be interested to see what characters like Kernel look like.
I’m not actually using any ray tracing in my screenshots. Aside from forcing anti-aliasing in the Nvidia control panel and rendering the game at a huge resolution, all the lighting and whatnot you see is 100% stock.
That being said, I’d love to see what it looks like too. Neat thing I found running round with the LOL and a gold Triangulate is how the reflection effect for the Intrusion Countermeasure Programs is done;
The reflection is actually just the textures of the ICP themselves! Normally you wouldn’t see this, since at reasonable resolutions each bit of the image takes up a larger area on the model and is distorted by the various curves and whatnot. When the game is rendered at 4k, though, it becomes plainly visible.
TronFAQ’s experiments with using a raytracing shader really highlight to me that this game could be perfect for showcasing how great raytraced reflections and global illumination could be. If it were possible to mod this to use raytracing for the reflections on the model, it’d be very interesting to see just how different things would look. That’s far, far beyond my capabilities, though.
