In this image the far rocks aren't from the level geometry but the background layer. It's simply syncronized with the main area.

XXL's Remaster, if it had the time and ressources could have used that technique to remove the fog and let you see a lowerpoly ( or samepoly tbh) copy of the level geometry as background. these backgrounds are scaled down to tiny sizes, allowing the vertices to make good use of the floating point precision, and avoid Z-tearing in the distance.
martyste
Tbh a lot could be done to embelish XXL with extra background elements replacing the fog. Oh and non-background geometry features to *hide* any visible LVL geometry not meant to be seen from a few sectors away.
martyste
sorry, i kinda get carried away.
alatinn
Not sure it's the right channel though :/
martyste
Anyway, old XXL2 skips were fun, but there's probably still a lot to discover... its turn will wait tho, as our eyes are focused on cleaning up the XXL1 route with our new eyes and tools
martyste
Not having to spend more than 2 minutes from opening the game to getting to a new spot to save for testing is what truly separates us from the past era
failentin
Which tool do I need for that?
baku69
He prolly is talking about cheat tool (where u can make save states and other staff)
baku69
But its not published/posted on the server yet cause its not finished
failentin
I see! Sounds cool, especially save stating!
baku69
There is a looooot more in it, you will see, we can give u the one of the newest version, so you can test some things
baku69
But take note that it's better to make copy of the game, and use the cheat tool on that copy, cause some crashes can still happen by it
failentin
Sure!
alatinn
Oh no
failentin
It would probably make my life a lot easier, so I would love to get a version of that ^^
alatinn
If the dude above has access to such a tool, he will defeinitely make that sub hour
failentin
totally...
alatinn
He will practice every dash in every tunnel
alatinn
And will make a 1:00:00... lol
