Oh, that's what you mean by imposters... I thought you were still trying to billboard. I figured the thing to do would be just slap up a two-triangle plane with an image on it, and shade it so that it was lit correctly (e.g. facing towards the star it would be shaded to imitate being in shadow, faci...

Limit Theory FAQ

Welcome to the forums.

I honestly think he just meant on a two-dimensional plane, not like it was floating or anything. i dont care about the floating. i care about using atlantis as mining base I'd use it as a mining base, if there were good enough resources below. Coolest oil rig ever, yeah? I've always been fascinated...

Honestly? I'd love if the economy could fall apart - if it took a significant amount of force to make it so. I'd love to see something akin to The Great Depression, where money and work is scarce, people pool their funds and can still just barely manage to scrape by, and migrate out of the area if t...

I think I might have phrased my question badly, so that it sounded like I was criticizing the idea. What I was trying to say is: assuming LT lets us reload saved games, and lets us change the speed at which time moves forward, what other gameplay features that play with time would you like to see? ...

Sadly, without production fully wired into the economy, the AI is not going to be able to find any equipment for expansion :lol: Perhaps I'll place a few cheat colonies that pump out equipment so I can test AI expansion tomorrow. It's kind of crazy how everything within the economy relies on everyt...

I can think of two ways of playing with time in Limit Theory: 1. Play the game. You're automatically moving forward in time. ;) It may also be possible to speed up time, or in some cases to slow it down. 2. Reload the game. It may play out a little differently based on what the random number genera...

I didn't see where he said that? First up and as I mentioned fluids...the below kind of a design, with your main mining station taking centre stage surrounded by outer facilities/landing zones make for an interesting look. I can see similar mining facilities leaving room for Josh's procedurally-gen...

Don't think that's feasible, ForsakenCrown. There aren't many games out there that simulate time travel (if any), for a good reason - you have to save snapshots of every moment in history (and regenerate the then-future when you go back in time and change something). :P That's a lot of data, and I d...

Put me on the side of those who want it, will use it, and will stare perplexedly at people who insist that it somehow spoils the game. There's having a game that is challenging, and there's trying to knock down a wall with your hands when there's a perfectly good sledgehammer nearby. The idea that ...

I didn't see where he said that?

Very nice examples! :clap: Welcome to the forums, Yawyk, you certainly made an entrance. :P Here's a smaller version of that missing image: http://cdn.superbwallpapers.com/wallpapers/fantasy/futuristic-city-in-the-mountains-19667-400x250.jpg I don't know much about Stargate Atlantis (never could get...

Couldn't have said it better myself, Hyperion. Welcome to the forums, Zuds!

I did that in post as I mentioned before, used adobe after effects just for one layer, mainly because I needed one effect called: cc radial fast blur. What it does, it blurs image from center point. Here is great example for effect in action: http://youtu.be/frXQxwMKh6c All I did was: I picked Z de...
