WOW, can't wait to see this :D now to fiigure out how to get back on test ...after 10 months being gone :(
Wow... I guess it's time to return.
Thanks for finally making this real!
We’ll see what? You don’t mean… you can’t mean… the new graphics engine? That mythical beast of legend, widely discussed but rarely seen and usually dismissed as a fairy tale?
BOOO YAH xD
As anyone who has talked to me, mostly on IRC, on game , or on stream will know that I've been quite optimistic, and continue to be optimistic. And what, I'm right... at least so far.
And yep, downloading and well hell just streaming it even as I download it xD
All working fine, want this at live as soon as possible :D
mine won't update :(
"could not find the requested patch on any of the specified patch servers"
edit ver. ID maybe?
^I swapped to 18.7.4.11_EP1 it started the update, for about 30 seconds...
then got this "an unrecoverable error occurred during patching. ou may have to reinstall Anarchy Online to play."
d'oh!
reinstalling...

Guide: Place the files in the game folder.
If you want to change presets you can edit the file "SweetFX_preset".
Whichever preset doesn't have the // in front of the # will be the preset used.
If you play in borderless mode and edit/save the preset file you can see the changes in-game right away.
All working great here, vid to follow in 2560 x 1440 oO (icons are making my eyes squint though... it's probably age)

is anyone else noticing that on the new engine everything seems white washed
also does anyone have a UI that will work on this the default is giving me eye cancer
My feedback:
+ all works smooth on old rig around 45-60 FPS
+ Lights, shadows, grass - this looks amazing (comparing to old AO)
+ EBM on many textures makes feel of real world
+ 400m range visability adds great experience in all areas, and in Shadowlands especially!
+ Blurr effect on distant buildings (ie: shadolands long range view) gives great effect!
+ Difference betwean lighten areas and those in shadow are superb!
And some minuses, unfortunately:
- unlit textures loss effect of EBM, which creates effect of waving ground when sun/shadow are casted in real time.
- some textures doesnt support light at all (Jobe harbour, Tir, VW) and none shadow is cast on them, they are "outcasts" in enviroment
- NPC dont apply long range view: I cans ee hecklers from 400m in Ely, yet guards are poping at 80 or so - this feels odd.
- Trees are nightmare now - they look like taken from other game, 3 decades ealier when comparing what is on ground...
- Character models definately need new polygon count, since they look ugly now. Also, I have noticed due low poly count there is big problem with proper lighting on them, becasue in starting window (login) they are lighted perfectly, and light cast is much lower in game.
Overall, this look fantastic! Few minor tweaks and we have it! YES YES YES!!!
How do you install? I ran the installer twice now. Each time, the directory filled with the install.exe and some bin files. After a while, the installer is gone and the directory is empty except for "current.txt".
this is really good news...
Vid is up if you want something to watch while downloading (2560 x 1440)

So.. anyone have this running on Wine (Linux/OSX) yet? I tried briefly but no luck, have to keep playing around with it..
So I actually downloaded the whole beta thingy, but where does it get it's .Exe placed?
