It's not, those are really the only things I could find level-related, maybe besides a few tags. |

It's hard to recreate when the trailer is so low resolution. You can really only rely on some of the screenshots and even then their are not many of them. a30 and b30 had some recycled elements from the macworld map.

I guess most people didn't seem to mind |

Quote: --- Original message by: waffles lol >talking about an alpha build for a game made in 99' >procede to talk about quality of alpha >game studio left apple for microsoft and created a near complete new game. idk about you, but I couldn't fathom technology and graphics of todays level within the 90's. I see little point in complaining about how a game looked or what cubemaps were used for an alpha build that was pretty much scrapped. That whole level is b30 and a30. |

Quote: --- Original message by: waffles srry, forgot the italics ...pretty much scrapped I'm also aware of the character models being carried over, but otherwise, the open world premise was dropped, and went from a 3p shooter to a fps. Not to mention the tech they got when they dropped apple and went with the direct-x box, which meant prettier graphics than the mac version. Still there's something beautiful about the pre xbox content. I would pay nearly any amount of money just to play it. |

Quote: --- Original message by: waffles No doubt. My post was more-so directed at noob commenting on the shaders of the content. I was talking about lumoria because the lum team made a ton of poor choices in the looks department. gunmetal and diffuse cubemaps on covenant stuff? barf. |
