If you're going to plagiarize this stuff, remove the URL of the image you're stealing, loser.

Dumbass. Major Dumbass.

Here's some clues, if you're really going to design a game:

1) physics engines are more complicated than graphics - so work on that first
2) modern GPUs still don't do ray tracing at playable framerates
3) if you use other people's work without their permission, you'll get sued.

Wow, that's sad.

I feel bad for you. You've taken it this far, you need therapy.

Actually I've not taken it far at all, the manager under me gave me the link to show some of the work the 3D modeler has done for the game... so I figured i'd share.

You can believe someone who knows nothing about the game I'm working on, or you can believe me, which has the information.

Oh no? That's odd, it seems you know more about my company than I do... Terry Cotant is the VP of Digital Immersion Software, and as far as I know, he is working with us with the game. The project Manager gave me the information, and the link to show me the quality.  So now tell me... do I have to talk to my project manager and ask him if he is lying to me?

Well my team gave me their latest screen shot. Minus the background the model you see in the screen shot is 100% custom made by my team.

What you think?

I think it's not a screenshot of your game, unless perhaps one of your tracks is the NV booth at Siggraph 2002, that this is one of the Z3 images created for that event, and that it's even labeled as such.

BTW, I've requested the crew to create a screen shot of the car itself without the modeler information on the side.

I doubt they're going to alter their sales brochure, so to speak...

Well, somebody has some 'splainin' to do. That image is assuredly not of something that will be in your game... and I think I heard Bill Gates is working with my team on the next OS for my gaming PC.

C'mon, CP. Show us something; your credibility seems in serious need of a shot in the arm.

I  asked a question, all you needed to do was give a simple answer, not a sarcastic response,

It was simple... apparently it wasn't quite what you were looking for, but... well, you sure got here in a hurry to reply; that's something.

I'll try again... is this better?

No, but I don't expect much from people here any more.

This is funny stuff!  Cyberpawz, did you really kipe this screen and show it as your own or is this a screen of your game that presenter3d.com is proudly using to hype their product?  If it is your game, why is your racing car trapped in front of the nVidia booth at E3?  Can someone besides Cyberpawz supply me with an email address for Terry Cotant so I can check this out?  If it is plagiarism I need to move this to the crypt.

What is with all the name calling in going on in Games?  I still have ink dripping from my quill from the last episode of that.  I think moderators are especially responsible for following The Rulez as we should be role models.  Please note the first bullet point, this is important to the smooth running of the Games forum.  I realize this might be a case of plagiarism and therefore illegal but you could have said that in much more professional terms instead of resorting to invectives. 

For the record, so folks know what I'm asking for when I get on your case for name calling, I don't expect any apologies between the principals in episodes like this.  Just a simple, "OK, I lost my head, I won't do it again" is fine.  Nobody has to go groveling to a person they obviously don't like and kiss their ass.

I would put you over my knee and give you a spanking but I'm deathly afraid we would both enjoy it too much.  Thanks for the straight up reply dv, it's been crazy in here.

This is the most entertaining thread ever.

Stealing is teh fun!

Did not! did too! You're this! you're that! Mod says: you're bad, Member says: I'm not. See? This is why we need PMs

It's a nice image and I'd like to see more, with a better render. In that one the car looks made of plastic.

Peace!

I call them "Troll-man, pussy, and donkey."  But that might change, I'm not sure of how they'll play out.

I did this with my Color Classic and SuperPaint
