Hello and thanks for giving us a new visit after long time.

I remember of you.

Looking forward for new progresses about this project, anyway.

Beep boop, I'm a computer-- err what? Ahem.. New updates

Vehicle shader : supports damage textures, emissive, ambient, specular colors, and reflections

But! Get a load of this

Damage textures are blended, and they affect reflection. They also physically affect the geometry of the car. Again, this is all done using a shader

And here's a video of it in action

Completely stunning work there!

Definitely the best addition you ever did, at least to me. THIS IS OUTSTANDING.

Wow that shader work is great. This really breathes new life into MM2.

Hello and thanks for giving us a new visit after long time. I remember of you.

Hope all is well with you! You made that Chevrolet Lumina APV Van for me from a Sketchup model. Those were the days.

Latest changes
-Fixed shader color order
(the one in MM2CT shader editor is WRONG.)
-Created D3D7 shader
-Removed the need for city scaling, therefore allowing dynamic batching (reduces render overhead)
-Implemented a "Closest X Rooms" culling system, a fallback for missing CPVS
-DatBrick wrote a CPVS class for C#. Currently working on implementing CPVS culling
-Fixed prop pathsets, the LineStrip's were creating too many props
-Built an "FPS test" for Android
-Refactored city loading code (it used to be a mess. it really still is. need to clean it even more)
-Messed around with some car physics. Might have to use a different package but it's a good thing to at least start trying things
-Mostly implemented a MM2 -> Unity particle system converter
-Started coding "Traffic Control Devices". a start to BAI implementation.

And I also made an issue to fix!

-Broke INST positioning

That's awesome man keep up the good work. Any videos of mmclone in action?

Good work. And please answer my PM.

Hmm. I implemented a "demo camera" that follows BAI paths, for framerate testing in builds.

Maybe once I fix INST & finish CPVS culling I'll record a video of that in action

Sounds good so far, keep up the nice work.

Starting to get vehicle physics working.

Dashboards ~95% work right now. Having troubles with damage needle placement but I suspect it's just a small code issue.
