  1. To the people who insist they are the same textures. Here is your evidence that you are wrong:

    You'll notice the Imperial sign on the helmet and the shoulder becomes far more clear. I can post the rear of the armor as well where textures become far more clear.

     

    Edit: Here's one more of the front without the UI so you can see the full chest:

    Um, what's the evidence. You posted one image (two technically, but no reference image). Regardless, it doesn't matter. They're the same texture with different post-processing effects.

  2. You are wrong again

     

    Speccy v1.11.2 Summary

    Intel Core i7 960 @ 3.20GHz 55 °C

    Bloomfield 45nm Technology

    RAM

    8.00 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 534MHz (8-8-8-20)

    Optical Drives

    LITE-ON COMBO SHC-48S7K ATA Device

    Audio

    NVIDIA High Definition Audio

     

    Only thing wrong with that, and its not even WRONG, is the video card and its still well in excess of the games recommended, not MINIMUM but recommended hardware requirements.

     

    The difference between a EVGA 470 Fermi Superclock and an EVGA 580 is only 16 Stream Processors. Core Clock and Memory Frequency is almost zero difference.

     

    Stop talking like you know what you're talking about, you don't know what you're talking about. Whatever your Masters Degree is in, its not in 3D Graphic Design, Game Design, Programming or even Information Technology.

     

    Also you're taking a shot of your character from far enough away for any MIP LOD bias to be completely unnoticeable. So seriously, just bow out of this debate, you are wrong.

     

    Software Engineering.

     

    Also, my character has far more detail from that distance than yours does up close. I didn't bother reading your specs because even if you have the specs, you've done something wrong because your screenies look like garbage.

     

    I'm guessing you're not a very good graphic designer.

    direct links for the lazy.

    open them in separate tabs and click between them, it's like night and day. you can't deny there's a texture difference here.

     

    Those textures are literally the exact same.

     

    Again, the only differences are alpha/lighting/shadow which makes the "higher resolution" character appear more defined. More defined does not mean a higher resolution image is being used for the texture.

     

    A higher res texture would be more intricate. For instances, scratches on the belt buckle, extra wrinkles in clothing.

     

    Also, I'm sure the reason is those special lighting effects take much more GPU power which is why they're reserved for the cut scenes.

  4. Don't confuse a masters degree with understanding a problem with DXT Image compression.

    Character Screen

     

    In Game

     

    Neither of those images are at 100% Level of Detail and I've got the graphics settings maxed out and my hardware is exponentially in excess of what is required to run this game.

     

    Apparently you don't have the hardware.

     

    Mine looks perfectly fine.

     

    But you know what they say, plumbers usually have the worst pipes of anyone.

  5. go post in the rift forum. anyone that has an account with rift would have been notified by Trion.

     

    I couldn't help but notice your sig. I lol'd at the combination of, "SWToR, Chicks and Disc Golf"

     

    Don't you mean Frolf, lol. I'm assuming you're referring to baby chickens, because come on... MMOs and frolf doesn't scream of someone who gets a lot of chicks.

  6. Oh no! The women are fighting for awareness of their disadvantaged status, who gives four asterisks? The men don't care, why try and speculate about what would happen if we let them vote or work? Is it suddenly going to change that men are treating them like crap?

     

    You analogies are misguided.

     

    Pay what they ask or don't.

  7. I hope for a LFG.

     

    Dual spec...don't care. But respeccing shouldn't be soooo costly...

     

    Transmog. I highly highly disagree about the gear thing. Sorry, but some or most of the end game gear looks ugly. I don't want to really wear it NOR does some of it fit the character I want to play. They just need to refine the mod system for orange gear though, they are on the right track...

     

    They basically have transmog in a roundabout way.

  8. I admit to not having done much research, but I don't see you quoting any numbers, either. And at least I actually live here. I'd say that makes me a more qualified observer of what is happening than you.

     

    That not withstanding, who gives a ****? Pay the money or don't, EA doesn't care. Why come in there and try to speculate? Is it going to suddenly lower your monthly rate?
