High lod model beta

[danivempire]

I finally tested it on my galaxy s3 and it runs smooth and all. I thought that on a smaller screen the details would not make a huge difference but actually it does ^^
So... note 10.1 and SGS3 runs fine with hilod ^^

We understand you won't have time at the moment to work on this.
Of course... you are working on the new table aren't you?
And secretly working hidden in a shed deep in the woods, working to bring us the addams family huh?
ADMIT IT YOU SON OF A *BIIIIIP*.

sorry guys I lost it... just tried to make him confess...

^^

not had chance to look at many tables to see differences. T2 looks nice but seems to drop a few frames on my original Nexus 7. Not played in a long time so maybe it always did this.

Did you try to put the hilod off to see if you still have frame rate issue?

Minor graphics bug.
Running latest beta ver.
Tee'd off plunge lane partially obscured by black object.
Don't know if this is hi-lod issue or was present before.
(hi-lod beta image below)

Edit - it is a hi-lod issue. Just temporarily restored market version, and the plunge lane is free of obstructions.
(Market release image below).

Detail: High even runs silky smooth on my Samsung i9000 not bad for a 44 month old phone

Heads up Ryan...I am now finding new issues on various tables with the Detail setting set to "Low" (could you possibly rename this to "Normal"). I will begin testing all tables with the "Low" Detail setting when I get off work later tonight.

 

[Ryan Routon]

new issues? That is bizarre, those models shouldn't have changed, I know I didn't change the headers =\

Can't repro - Just done a very quick test with latest ver4 hilod beta installed.
With detail = low and randomly tested about 8 tables without seeing any issues.

Ran out of play time now. Back to work.

Check Tee'd Off...The glass over the Golfer wheel is no longer transparent here with Detail set to "Low".

Yeah - confirmed. A full check through is required.

 

[Baron Rubik]

Pop bumpers look wrong, too solid - Dr Dude (both hi & low lod)
Firepower - right lock lane - transparency issue (high & low lod)
Haunted House - lower level score should have 6 digits lit

TPA (high & low has only 5)

Monster Bash (hi lod only) - what's this? Doesn't look right to ipdb.

 

[Baron Rubik]

Rbion (hi & low lod) temple ramp cover plastic & others should be transparent.

Tee'd off (low lod) gopher wheel glass not transparent as mentioned previously.
TZ (high & low lod) - pop bumper caps missing screws.

Thats my spots on a full table run through.
Another pair of eyes will probably show more.

Whirlwind looks stunning this build.

 

[PiN WiZ]

The Ripley's transparent ramps have been that way since TPA was first released, so those more than likely won't be changed as the art team would have to handle that.

Ok Ryan, here are the results of the Beta low level of detail vs. Market release for the first 20 tables. Issues are highlighted in red and need attention. Notable improvements are highlighted in green and are fine as is.

Runs beautifully on my Galaxy S3, only thing I'dike to see is the option to switch on ball reflection - only jarring difference when compared to the iOS version now

 

[Mad07]

seen during start

The rest of the text is missing

btw: an old typo is still there

It should be an Umlaut = 'ü" or “ue“ is also correct (full word "verfügbaren“ or " verfuegbaren“) or in short form "Alle Tische bereits gekauft"

It looks like it had it to me. Haven't seen a iOS device, so can't be sure.

Can you see one in the Android forum?

 

[Ryan Routon]
