That's the middle ground there. You can't please everyone. While I would like to comfortably see everything in it's full resolution, I don't want to be too hard on the bandwidth. It's a simple rule really. Not mean't to step on anyones toes.

So now you see why there are just 200 premium. Because they were modeling the radio station dials.

Pd is staffed with all assburger workers because the cars look otherworldly.

Not every photo taken is going to be worth wasting bandwidth on. I don't see the problem in linking to the higher resolution image. If anything it provides better framing so you can take it all in.

The (uncanny) devil is in the details. The rear mirror at the driver's side is the biggest giveaway: it doesn't reflect on the car body (which is not possible without actual ray tracing or light path tracing). Also, if the scenery is blurred due to motion, its reflection on the car should also be blurred since it is also moving. It's still fucking amazing.

It's odd, most of the ones people seem to say look most photorealistic look least realistic to me. It's almost like they're too perfect and they sort of just stand out as wrong.

On that one the lighting on the car / reflections just seem off to me and I get a sort of uncanny valley thing going on.

Do you mean that they will be standard with another level of premium above them? I doubt it, if they've got sense they've modelled these cars to a level that they're probably never going to go higher than (probably the photo travel models) and all they'll do is get the rest of the cars up to that level.

I think he means they will be standard models by the time GT6 comes out

Probably. There is no way in modeling the cars with more polygons than the current premiums models, even being for a more powerful console.

The only "uncanny valley" with the premium cars is not lack of polygons, or even textures, is lightning, shadows and effects (like lack of some reflections or lower res reflections), that aren't car-depending.

Nah i don't think Premium models will ever become standard.
There done above ps3 specs , we can't see they real stuff until PS4.
With PS4 there be add AA and they will put extras power on background and number of cars.

He means that Premiums will be the default, you guys are mixing up your words

Premiums are modelled down to every nut and bolt, they won't be upgrades any further

But the knobs and dials in that zoomed-in picture were very low-poly, surely that can be improved! ;)

Nah, it's completely insane as it is now.

I noticed that too, but it shouldn't be hard to bump that up on new hardware.

Well of course they're going to look low poly when zoomed in that close.

From a normal perspective, they look incredibly detailed. Smoothing all the edges out would be wasting the polygon budget.

It's shocking how far PD are going with the cockpits.

I really actually do hope they are smoothed out for GT6 PS4.

But for some reason, I can't help but think they'll just port them without any smoothing :p

I held off on watching this until a proper direct feed version came out and...

:bow PD, just :bow. I stopped eating my dinner halfway through watching that and just became to gawk.

Though really, I dislike seeing all these pictures of the new McLaren in the promotion of the game, truly has such an uninspired design. It looks like a rejected Ridge Racer car design. It hurts to look at it knowing what it could've been.

I am not a sim fan, but I am buying a wheel (it's on order) and GT5.

This is _the_ best looking game I have seen up to this point. It's absolutely insane. I have a history in both game development and feature films (9 feature films) as a CG artist and this stuff being done in real-time is pretty damn amazing. Pre-rendered still looks better of course, there are some amazing CG car videos out there that topple this, but in real time I have not seen anything better.

All other car games miss that attention to detail, touch and polish that makes GT5 look so amazing.

actually, you could go farther than that:

but GT5 models are good enough you could probably make them perfect without having to work on them, just through subpatching/tessellation. Edit: except textures would require some work, but i believe PD have much higher quality versions of the ones we see in the game.

The production was top notch. I agree that the music, while I like it more than others, was still not the best choice.


And yesterday was my busy running day so I neglected to add the little guide for imgur. I will do this later today when I get out of work as I go in about 15 minutes.

I'm sorry but these Premium models totally make up for the sub par standards.

The modelling is just fucking insane.

Gimme 200+ of these babies and 800 card board boxes and I'll be happy.

Can I ask you a favour? Can you export the SAME picture in all possible sizes? 450p,1080p, 8MP, etc?

I think you can only do 8MP in Photo Travel. And don't upload them on an image site, make a zip file or something and upload to http://www.mediafire.com/. I wanna see if they're being upscaled or not.

WOW that Zonda looks awesome.

The more screens/video I see of GT5 the more I think the real reason it took 5+ years was getting every last byte of memory and every last flop of power from cell/rsx.

When Kaz compared making GT5 to the apollo mission, he was really referencing Apollo13.

Where the Nasa dudes (PD) have to make a carbon monoxide filter (GT5) out of a bunch of stuff in the apollo lander (PS3).:lol

God this game is sending me crazy......

Man everyone who has the game is raving over the snow levels. What makes them so great? Anybody playing them with the DS3? I wonder if they're gonna be as fun without a wheel.
