Nope....him and Deano found out when they woke up...they were just as surprised as everybody else

Which makes this all the more weird

Shadow anti-aliasing needs to be fined tuned per area by artists, but it's not a solvable problem, it can only ameliorated, at least with current tech.
It's certainly possible to do better, but I'm working on this in my spare time as a personal project..

Yeah, I remember someone saying the same thing about GT. IT also has self-shadowing on the cars and the shadows look weird...like triangles or something.

How does a game of this scale look like 2 time better than most games that arent even half the scale of this?
It makes no sense
GJ!

Yeah, I kinda figured this seeing that no game that features full scene soft shadowing seems to do it without artifacting. It's not a visual dealbreaker or anything, but I hope you guys can fine tune it by the time the game is released.

I wonder how that feels as two of the main programmers making the game. :lol

I wonder if they are happy to see this on one of the biggest shows in America?

I guess that's from the Nina Kristensen presentation...? Looks like Nariko's cutscene model which we saw in that facial closeup.

I'm assuming the where and when is a GDC session.

Thats a great marketing move though. Heroes is getting lots of bus and the audience is definetely perfect for PS3.

Next: Afrika on Discovery Channel!

You learn something new every day.

*Btw, have we seen that hand-cannon in motion? :eek:

What else accounts for the laptop and mic in the shot? Looks like its onstage. Maybe they're doing setup.

I thought GDC session at 1st, but it's too early..everything starts at 10am. Probably setup or something. But I still didnt see a physics session scheduled for today (Dean/Deano said that it was going to be demo'd for a physics session)

The game still has 4xAA and 8xAF right?

Maybe there were taken from Nina's presentation to press in Norway..

Yeah, that's what I suggested. It's the same cutscene shown there with Nariko and the bazooka.

Dear Sony,

****ing stop it. Stop making us make .gifs out of five second clips from TV shows. Stop making us capture cell phone photos from presentations. Stop making us look through patents for trademarks. Start releasing media. kthnx.

A lot of games this gen that have full scene shadowing seem to have this problem btw.
It's an artifact of shadowmapping - like nAo says, pretty much something you have to live with on current tech. ICO was different because, like all the good shadowed games on PS2, it used shadow volumes, which don't have these problems.

"Oh no! This motherf***ers put that incredibly old and broken build on the show. They should have consulted this with us!" :)

I think level of AF depends on a texture, it's not like in PC games, when you choose full screen level of texture filtering. So it's probably very high on characters and (slightly) lower on other surfaces - I think that ground texture should be sharper if it had AFx8 applied, but I may be wrong though.
