Wootage!! News update on the new engine! That's what I been hoping to see for like the last 2 weeks. Now I wanna see my male NM head rendered in the new engine.
Man I can't wait for the new engine to go live. Having been around the current AO engine since its beta days I can certainly appreciate the hard work you guys are putting into this update. Hell I can remember way back when T&L lighting was added to the engine via some DX8 programing wizardry. Anything that makes the game more visually immersive helps the enjoyment of the game IMHO. Not to mention the benefits of utilizing the current day GPU's. I can only begin to imagine the new visual nano effects on nukes and buffs.
Keep banging away at it guys and gals, I'll be re-subbing the moment the new engine is released. maybe sooner if you're gunna shoot it over to test live.
