Screenshot of the Month, December 2016 [Winner Announced!]

[Cube_]

Welcome to screenshot of the month!
There was only one entry this month so... well; congratulations vectrotek.


Winning entry:
Vectrotek - Langenhoven's Island..

Langenhoven's Island..

From tf3dm (credits to the modeller but I wish he'd given correctly named images ).
I had to re map each and every polygon in blender. It was hard work.
This just tests the SSAO and the Water Node. (more shots at "screenshots" topic)

[Cube_]

That's really nice, loving the texture work and reflections

[Virion]

Wow really good visual quality there

[Vectrotek]

Thanks gentlemen!

I'm considering reducing the voting window by 10 days, starting with this month (so instead of 20 days from closing it'll be 10 days, 20 feels excessively long)
Thoughts on this? Should I reduce it more? less? keep it as is?

[CuteAlien]

Yeah, I also think voting is going on a little long.

[Cube_]

Yeah, I've been ramping it down - first I set it to 30, then 20, but well over 90% of votes land in the first week or so so 10 days seems to be a reasonable final step; I mostly just wanted to see if longer time meant people took longer to vote or a higher net total or whatever but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Since there was no winning entry I couldn't be bothered with a poll, congratulations vectrotek.

[Vectrotek]

Its lonely at the top.. (jokes..)
I hope 2017 has a load of entries!

Good job to the devs! Irrlicht is here to stay!

May you all have a really great 2017!

[Cube_]

I might actually enter for once; if I can escape fallout 4. WORST. GIFT. EVER (it takes up all my time T_T)

[Vectrotek]

You must be enjoying all those SSRs?
(I cant play, just looked at screenshots)

mmm my brain can't parse what SSR means but the game is interesting, on one hand it's the worst fallout game ever made... On the other hand it's a really good borderlands; I'd share some of the screenshots I've taken [heavily modded, mind] but... frankly this isn't the right thread. whelp back to coding.

Screen Space Reflection (SSR)..
I know Mel's interested in this and now I'm too..
Found myself in a hospital, and everything was SSR!
I think I'm becoming "Obsessive Compulsive" about it..
(anything to avoid thinking about what I'm in for)

Anyway, enjoy the game!

Oh, Yeah! Post some shots in "Off Topic" or "Everything Game Prog"..
(also'd like to see your Irrlicht shots here)

As for this thread, I don't think I'll be posting any Irrlicht shots soon or at least until I've got my head wrapped around SSR..
(now all we need is for "devsh" to be nice and pour his "Triangulated Fragpos" wisdom upon us)
I'm trying to figure out how to buy their B A W from the RSA.. (In my "must do" list for 2017)
(if I survive this looming surgery that is)

Just might post some Fallout 4 screenshots in off-topic (mostly take them as inspiration though, whenever I find something neat (or buggy) in any game I screenshot it for future reference), as for irrlicht renders: don't have anything fancy, most of my code is back-end stuff (i.e I spend very little time on making my renders look /good/ I just need to render something so I know if my back-end works )

mmm yes, wisdom would be good.

Anyway, good luck with that surgery.
