Tempest 4000 - YES! YES! YES!

Might be best to resize those pics down a bit!

They're not my pics, they're linked directly from Jeff's originals on the LS site.

I realise that, just thought you might've got links to them hosted elsewhere, or could change them to just URLs?

I do love UHD.

"Before" (i.e. some time ago ) all they were asking was 1920x1080 .. .. "today" all they ask is 4K ...

Looks nice

or someone could just stick:

Code: Select all

in the phpbb stylesheet

On a side note two new Xbox ONE SDKs arrived yesterday ...

.. but I am still trying to figure out how to set them up, I may have to wait for Yak's later.

Never seen anything coming so devoid of instructions like those 2 but it's Yak that made all the registrations dunno where he should know where to look at

It's like "this is the devkit in a box, end" .. a warrany .. some cables .. a 4 pages things that says "connect the cables like that" .. end ..

Will there be any differences between xbox and ps4 versions?

Will there be any differences between xbox and ps4 versions?

Hopefully *NOT*

Dude I am working on N versions SIMULTANEOUSLY with a really TIGHT deadline and people from Atari on my neck literally almost every 30 minutes !

I've been all the week - finally I should "got it all" - over that "damned" ( actually not so badly done at all ) Steam API for various shit.

The SDK that was supposed to be here "soon" arrived just YESTERDAY .. do I know a shit about Xbox ONE and how it works ? NO, not yet, but I'll have to have it all working asap.

WHY there should be differences anyway ?

I could only reply "yeah, if you give me extra 2 months and extra money and you tell me what different thing you want and why there should be differences... "

[edit] - if you mean about VR, there's SOMEONE from Microsoft that MONTHS ago got in touch with us about things and we say "YES SURE!", we even signed/sent some NDAs/thing .. SUPPOSEDLY to receive some VR stuff to work on ...

Then this guy went on holiday ... and we never heard anything any more .. tried to "poke" a couple of times .. still nothing .. you tell me ..

Do I KNOW if MS what/has/does/wants VR for XBOX ?

NOT A CLUE !

Your guess is as good as mine ..

My impression is that VR and XBOX is not going to happen anytime soon.

[edit2] - the delay about SDKs seems been due to "something I did not quite understand" a sort of "internal forms fuck up" as in "NDAs and such signed, forms sent" somewhere/somebody/something fucked up something a little and for quite some time "nobody was aware of".

We were waiting for some reply, everything we had to do was done but something "got stuck somewhere in the middle" and took some extra time to actually found this out and then some more extra to have someone to fix it.

And then and only then finally we been able to order and get those devkits.

You see why I am allergic to forms.

All I really meant was, is is the xbox version compromised at all comepared to the ps4 version?

For example, often xbox games seem to be at a lower resolution to keep up the framerate.

I will let you know how it goes as soon as the SDK is up and I figure out how to make things work

I would be "pretty disappointed" if that is the case .. let's put it this way .. compared to PCs and such PS4 "is not stellar", I mean it is what it is.

If you tell me XBOX ONE "is even less than that" .. that's REALLY WORRYING ... then I'd dare to say "I can't see that doing any VR" ..

Said that Tempest 4000 "is a game that scales well" in High Rez and less rez ..

But yeah this will be my FIRST EVER "look" at the Xbox ONE, I have NOT seen ANYTHING yet about XBOX One, it's this time the only console we did not own until now

Ah yes apart Wii U .. that's .. "it never existed"

I am very curious to see what happens .. if it truly has to lower rez ( compared to PS4 ) to keep up frame rate ... "shitniz" ..

HOLY ... Cow ...

How to activate and install the XBOX ONE XDK

"Blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah ..
blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah ..
blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah ..
blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah ..
blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah .. blah ..
blah .. blah .. blah .. " ..



.. it's going to take a while ..

They certainly like "complication" .. .. and I was thinking that "sure you can't beat Sony about all this ?" .. maybe I was wrong ...

[gilesgoat]

HOUSTON WE HAVE PROBLEMS

.. so VS 2015 on side "not sure it's the correct version they want" ...

But worries not you have a key you can download and install VS 2017 PRO .. WOOO ...

Download/install/activate .. ALL GOOD .. YEAH ...

"Install XBOX ONE XDK" .. yay ...

"what I can not specify a folder ?"

"what I can not tell what compiler ?"

Oh well maybe it's clever to figure it out ..

.. ... ... ..

NO ...

Install things on 2015 .. completely DOES NOT see 2017 ...

Trying for figure out how to tell it "NO DO THIS NOT THAT !!!"

[edit] - MICROSOFT WHAT THE FUCK ???

Xbox One XDK setup does not support installing to a non-default location. The /installpath command-line switch, which is listed in the help output for XboxOneXDK.exe /?, doesn't work correctly and should not be used.

ok ENOUGH for Sunday

We'll see how good the MS tech support is, which .. looks "confusing" a bit ( don't like that site at all how is made ) ..

I'll repeat once more again "if you do this kind of job" FUUCK SSDs and "250 Gbytes are enough" ..

No .. 3TB of storage are NOT enough when you start to have N SDKs on your machine ..

DX9 SDK, DX10/11/12 SDK , WINxx plattform SDK, Android NDK sdk, PS Vita SDK, PS4 SDK, Eclipse, OR SDK various versions, Samsung Galaxy SDK, a couple of virtual machines, Xilinx SDK, various programs of various sorts, too many versions of many projects of many things, various tools, images, movies, audio and crap ..

Gets "even worse" on some other machines .. Xilinx SDK, Cypress SDK, Altera SDK, Andreno SDK, Parallax Propeller SDK, CPM too many things, various ASM, stuff for windows XP/95/DOS, two versions of APL, two CAD programs,another copy of Eclipse, NSIS, tools, etc. etc. etc. ..

Bah ..

I know I already have 2 PCs I should get a 3rd one maybe ?

[gilesgoat]

... at this rate I am going go become INSANE !!!! ....

.. nuff said ..

But at least MS replied .. it SHOULD have been working what I've done .. so tomorrow I'll have to do it again and collect a lot of info and send it to them so they can figure out why it did not work ..

Oh well , it's a start at least.

DO NOT ASK ME TO ADD/REMOVE/DO/MORE/ANYTHING about Tempest 4000 .. IS MORE THAN ENOUGH WHAT ALREADY IS/WE HAVE TO DO !!!!

Hey look, first video!

[gilesgoat]

Nice but whoever is playing does not know how to play really well
